Alfred Nobel

Alfred Nobel
 
You had the mind for art and science,
 shared business interest with your father,
 not broken even when you lost your brother –
 will to achieve by work inspired.
 
You built a fortune and empire,
 busy yet lonely in affairs.
 Metaphysical reality
 in life of struggle you acquired.
 
You changed the lives of many people,
 sensitive was your noble spirit:
 the poet, peace maker and scientist.
 
Entire mankind you enabled
 with gift of fortune, nobility.
 You changed the world and our reality.

Art Wielgus, Welcome to Poetry soup, I hope you enjoy the community. Here, you will find friendly poets who enjoy supporting one another. I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. Tell me a little about your poetic skills if you like. It will be my pleasure to follow and read every poem you post from here on :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@
