No words


Where there are tears
There are no words

Where there is music
There are no words

Where there is painting
There are no words

Where there is love
There are no words

Where there is passion
Words run and hide

Where there is sadness
There are no words

Where there is poetry
The poet attempts justice to the word

Where there are tears
The poet mystically appears

Where there is death
There are words

Proclaiming dominance to all before
Music art and philosophy

For not all are artists and musicians
All we have left are words and sorrows

How so very sad
And so very absurd

My mouth has no words, my thoughts do, my tongue twists words, my mind never does. My words are colourful little specs in the air, my finger arrange them.We have words and sorrows. Our words are so often just words, and nothing more. But your poetry is so much more.

Love this one Arthur. It says so very much. I especially liked the lines, "Where there is poetry The poet attempts justice to the word Where there are tears The poet mystically appears" Nicely done
