Let Your Mind

Let your mind hold you a hostage Let it guide your hand across the page Where you will find a world of possibility You will be taken beyond the city limits Through sidewalks Over broken memories Past seas of people Tossed love poems Twisting trails New beginnings. Let your mind find you forgotten forests Let it introduce you to a land undiscovered Where words dance upon your tongue And they light up dark corners everywhere you go Let your hand travel across stacks of papers Crumpled dreams Littering the souls of those left behind Let your mind guide you to cemeteries Clutters of bones Past lives Past loves Mothers. Fathers. Sisters. Brothers. Friends. Lovers. Let your mind guide your thoughts to the sky Swirling in the sunrises Settling in the sunsets Opening your heart to words of enchantment Whispers of wonder Muttering guidance Hope. Faith . Love. And when your eyes awake You will be able to see Art and beauty unexplainable Notebooks filled with words Memories of the places you have been.

Hi Sarah, Welcome to Poetry soup, I hope you enjoy the community. Here, you will find friendly poets who enjoy supporting one another. I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. Tell me a little about your poetic skills if you like. It will be my pleasure to follow and read every poem you post from here on :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@
