Just a Dream

The entire world was silenced
And from the darkness emerged,Truth;
Lost since the paradise garden
Abandoned for cupidity;
And out of Truth the advent poet
Appeared with imaginative
Zeal and clarity of purpose:
To rhythmically shape our hearts
And minds with eternal verses
Instilled with His intuitive
Enlightenment from the cosmos
Taking the form of a poem.
Although pleasant it may have seemed
In reality, just a dream.

Intuitions are both revelations and self-serving views. You have captured the relevance and irelevance of the human mind. I like your descrition of poetry!
