Edward Micheals Poet Rhyme

Elixir Description

Words flow like a babbling brook,
To my home, muse lets me look.
A farmstead by the rush.
Whisper in my ear, ancestor cheer, comedic discuss.

A choice for some, prince or slum.
Forward thinking, and digital dumb.
Can we walk? Soulful spirit and painless run?
Journey end, expedition begun.

One of three, three of one,
To flight, to absorb the here and gone.
Memory and conscience,
Hammer or tongue.

Soulful challenge, to fit or belong,
Codswallop with angelic song.
Pain soup all the way, fire and flame,
Your shine. . . Our shame.

-The Northern Poet-

Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.

Doug Vinson December 29, 2016 at 11:34 PM Edward, I really like this, and I don't know all of the "whys." I guess that's part of it. : ) Cheers, Doug. Edward Micheals January 6, 2017 at 2:13 PM Hey Doug, Thank you so much for your feedback, i am really glad you enjoyed my poem. I really struggle typing stuff up as i am dyslexic so my poetry sometimes gets lost in translation. :) All the best Doug and thanks again. EM.
