Booking the Word

We swim in oceans of the word, voices felt and echoes heard Sometimes with a baneful blurred within the silence slurred When the heavens parentally pour, words of love start to soar Reaching hearts to the core, waiting to set sail before the shore Only our words will penetrate, building worlds as they create Enchanting eyes as they dilate lifting sorrows for they elevate Like a hammer they can fall, banging bottom they shall crawl And as they carry a heavy hall, they spread and sadly sprawl For my words will live forever and the solitudes they will sever Thru my love, they will endeavor and land on your lips wherever I am a man of my wholesome word, never shaken never stirred My words of love transferred, along the harmonious hummingbird.

This is a wonderful poem. A humming bird coming home. Wholesome and never stirred. I am sorry for taking so long to judge the contest. I am unpacking so many book boxes in our new home in Spain. So many books and so little space. And then I start reading ... Kind wishes, Kai

Words have more power than we realize; use them cautiously; you've penned a lovely set of them, thereby, creating beauty...our world needs beauty; light to pierce the dark.
