Justin Bordner Poet Free verse

Love Wonder

When you were born
the Sun named you Wondra
and Luna fed you star fire from her naked night,
they knew you would dance with feet of love war
that your heart would become poetry, body an angel's repository
and that your soul would cry diamonds, a mind of misfit symphony, 

As you've grown, so pretty and strong
like a song of valor from an incorruptible heartbeat
a new passion of virtue has glown from your triumphant love touch,
serpents have negotiated for your beauty only to be awed by your command
and the indigenous creatures of Earth have come to your maternal hand for guidance,
the crosses in your eyes have shown the brave sanctuary and the wicked outstretched humility -

J.A.B.

Laura Breidenthal July 21, 2015 at 3:50 AM I am running out of creative things to say about your work... again, I am in awe!!! I love that last line... this newness, this growth, is something to celebrate! Your themes are always inspiring, challenging, and crystal clear. The kind of clear that makes you question clarity. Humility has never been so wickedly fascinating! "a mind of misfit symphony" Is a force to be reckoned with. Much like you, sweet poet of genius!! Always, Laura Justin Bordner July 21, 2015 at 8:52 PM You are a woman that needs to feel every possibility of love, to see new meaning in tradition, needing to answer life with exquisite sensitivity and creativity Laura...to feel your heart, intense and clear is all that I need...J.A.B.

Kp Nunez July 20, 2015 at 6:13 AM I've wondered about your take on this theme, Justin. I have somehow anticipated this but not how abruptly it ended in that last line. This reader is left to wonder some more then, and would have been happier with a few more lines. But such is your inspiration, and would have to respect it. But thank you for sharing this, and for providing another inspiration. Kim Justin Bordner July 20, 2015 at 8:24 PM My creative process for this composition did not take into consideration whether or not you would be happy, perplexed, or illuminated by this beautiful artwork Kim...I am pleased that I am able to defy your anticipation and thus spur your fertile mind into variant excitments and mysteries lovely Poetess...you share your thoughts like a trustworthy friend, and I appreciate that very much...J.A.B.
