An Inspired Poet

A weaver of words in deep quiet reflects In his mind’s prism, many a thought deflects Within him the rainbow colors of passion rage He scripts songs of beauty and rhyme on page after page He has no magic, neither erudite nor clever But hungry souls, his poems avidly devour Stirring their hearts as wind on whispering leaves And each line, some alluring fancy weaves As from pen to paper his fancies flow In a lingo that has an unusual glow Though a great epic may not be born His songs move even hearts of flint n’ stone He sings the paeans of love and life Of men in cross roads of toil and strife He awakens dead worlds long forgotten Taking us to magic lands never trodden His songs have echoes of a heavenly rhapsody Drowning the Earth in flooding melody Fuelling hearts with thoughts one cannot name Spawning tempestuous passions one cannot tame Placed First. 8 Dec. 2021 A Strand (1045)Poetry Contest Sponsor- Brian Strand

A poet! An Artist of beauty in motion.. Ever in a mission of Life.. belonging to many interdependent worlds.. The word is his sacred language.. He bonds and remains detached.. A free soul who allows his imagination to cross the lines of what is mundane.. and his word to infringe the laws of language.. A poet walks extra miles, ascends virgin lands to get inspired.. He carvers his legacy on his avid readers hearts and minds.. dear Valsa, you have taken me to the magic realm of the poet! You have fueled my soul with your deep and powerful rendition! No wonder, as you are an inspired poetess who awakens minds and inspires hearts! I tremendously adored what you weaved of golden impressive words! My deepest regards and blessings.

"A poet walks extra miles, ascends virgin lands to get inspired.. He carvers his legacy on his avid readers hearts and minds.." What is this other than poetry ! If all your comments are compiled, that would make a wonderful tome of poetry ! Again and again I can only repeat that you are so gifted. I don't have the language to respond to your comment in a befitting way. So kindly accept my thanks sincere and heartfelt, dear sweet friend

We shall make envy yellow or red eyed... :) :) Thanks a lot Gershon for your lovely comment.... ! I too feel a kind of jealousy seeing the ease with which you script rather 'mint' poems after poems

Dear Valsa, really love your theme of an inspired poet. "Stirring their hearts as wind on whispering leaves And each line, some alluring fancy weaves" - beautiful image. Best wishes ~ Mala
