Creating Gems For Others - 'A Poet's Worth'

The workings of the hidden world
By the poet are revealed
The heart’s untangled in a verse
The secrets are unsealed
The poet paints a picture 
In timeless light it glows
The beauty of the language
Is captured yet it flows
He’s expressing hidden feelings
And the value in all things
Can you hear the melody
The song the poet sings
Elegance and timelessness
For others to be blessed
He’s capturing for all to see
What cannot be possessed
