Paul Callus Poet Verse

Ken

Ken  (Pleiades)                                      

Kneeling in prayer I’m
Kissed by heavenly rays
Kindling in me flames of
Knowledge bestowed for life
Keeping me strong, safe from
Knuckling under pressure
King of my humble realm.

Andrea Dietrich March 12, 2017 at 8:26 PM Paul this is very lovely. One thing, we were not supposed to use proper nouns like names of people. Maybe you can call it King (and change it back later. I just want you to be on the winner list)!! Paul Callus March 13, 2017 at 12:00 PM Thank you, Andrea. Yes, names is against the rules, but in this case 'ken' means knowledge, so I hope it won't be mistaken for a name (that's why I inserted a short note below the poem. Also, the title is not supposed to be included in the poem itself. Regards // paul
