Poetic Love

Poetry; you ask?
No,no-
Poetry is not mere words upon a page!
It isn’t a rhyme or metaphor-
Or even a simile.
So much more is Poetry to me!
Poetry is lover’s first sight,
A brave, dashing knight,
A starry sky that captivates & raptures the seer.
Poetry is inspiration’s favorite creation.
Poetry is a silk, petaled rose, a feeling of sand in your toes.
Poetry is the seeing of a magnificent dawn.
Poetry is the window to our souls.
Poetry is the only link to our inner deep.
She isn’t a feeling, a landscape, or physical embodiment!
She is the air itself—-
Without Poetry; our lives are merely
random, chaotic, numbing, steps to death.
Poetry is the motivation
To living life.
