Notes About The Poem

A Heart Who Bleeds Words

My heart bleeds words which take the form of poetry – by poet

There is grace in the nouns
     Freedom in the verbs
          There is music in the prose
   Whispers of light in the poem

There is hope in the thoughts
     Promise in the ideas
          There is silence in the heart
   Joy in the kindest breath

There is faith in the inspirations
     Rhythm in the stanza
          Laughter in the romance
   Feelings powerful and clever

There is expectation in the lyrics
     Recovery in the soft conjunctions
          Pearls of wisdom in the style
   Life that welcomes gentle insight

There is harmony in the quiet songs
     Magic that reminds us to love
         Beyond the words and phrases
   All the way onto the blank pages

There is beauty in the compositions
     Tunes of melodies easy and gentle
           Coloring souls in hues of serenity
   Peace that surpasses the empathetic

There is kindness in the starry shimmers
      Hearts both breathtaking and brilliant
          Souls so warmed by their passions
   They are shadowed by love without conditions

There is longing in the one who writes
     Both sad things and glad things
          Whatever details might enlighten
   Bringing to life the story, the poem….

Felt by a heart who knows words
     Give their lives the dance, the waltz
          That brings life to their souls
   And a narrative to their goals

Written by a heart who bleeds words!

Jeannie Cronin December 9, 2021 at 9:24 AM Beautifully penned, I wish I could write free style like that. My brain has one gear, rhymes. Anything else seems to be an accident and pretty much winds up to be a train wreck. Good stuff
