Poems unread

 Obscure poems that stay unread
Words that’re spun in a poet’s head
Never been seen floating away
Seeking poetic light of day.

Words akin to the tumbling rain
Surge in, reciting sweet refrain
Whence the night is dark and timeless
In an abiding quietness.

Poems no one has ever heard
The solitude of silent words
Whispers journeying off somewhere
Celestial as silent prayer.

As stars saturate sky at night
Moon glowing for earthlings delight
Scene set for poetic release
In dreamland playing hide-and-seek.

Crystol Woods Date: 8/4/2025 7:52:00 AM Delightful thoughts! Such a sad theme made magical with your words. It does make me sad to think of all the amazing poetry that is never seen or considered, never touching another as poetry is meant to do. I wish I had time to read it all! Xoxo
John Read Date: 8/3/2025 8:51:00 AM Hi sister Beryl I'm sure all poem's are read it's just those who read them can't be bothered to leave a comment.
Mystic Rose Rose Date: 8/2/2025 12:37:00 PM I agree in dreamland many things surface that we don't allow during the day. Such a beautiful way of saying it dear Beryl. :)
Susan Ashley Date: 8/2/2025 9:24:00 AM Dear Beryl, your poem is sadly beautiful in the expression of your emotions about unread poems. Especially striking to me was "The solitude of silent words/Whispers journeying off somewhere/Celestial as silent prayer." -wow! Writing poetry can be a bittersweet experience. I feel your soulful words through your smooth poetic finesse. Warmest wishes, my poet friend.. ~Susan
Jennifer Proxenos Date: 8/2/2025 12:21:00 AM An awesome topic to write about and which happens to all of us at times. Just different strokes for different folks, our taste for a particular write might not appeal to to some, yet to others it will. The heading has a lot to do with it also. Nevertheless, I READ IT SEVERAL TIMES, AS IT IS SO APT. Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.
Paula Goldsmith Date: 7/31/2025 2:30:00 PM A powerful write. I enjoyed reading this write. All poems should be read but are not. All poems should have comments on them but they do not. So many great writers here. Guess time is to blame. Please do Not blame the wonderful writers. Have a blessed/lovely day writing away.........
Victor Buhagiar Date: 7/31/2025 3:45:00 AM You are right in a way. Yet there are poets who never reciprocate a comment. What can one do?
Daniel Henry Rodgers Date: 7/28/2025 5:27:00 AM Dear Beryl, I think that you've captured the quiet pain and wonder of being a poet so beautifully and the hope that our hidden words might one day find a reader, a heart, or simply peace in dreamland. Loved It! Summer Blessings, Dear Beryl, Daniel
Sara Etgen-Baker Date: 7/27/2025 5:18:00 PM I loved the flow of your rhyme scheme and words, Beryl. Unread poems are rather sad to me. I liked every verse. Well done...faving, hugs, Sara
