Poetry

Poetry In poetry the words impart where muse has touched a poet’s heart. Not only those who speak in verse but all who share in poet’s curse. It matters not if words don’t rhyme as long as each and every line has words that flow with perfect ease and rhythm that our ears will please. The stories that these words must tell should capture souls within their spell. Outpourings from a poet’s pen help guide the paths of mortal men. For words passed on by poet’s muse are strands of knowledge that they choose to share with all who care to read the wisdom of their planted seed. A poet’s words, when thus enthused, become the vessel that is used to place within the minds of men the words of those who guide his pen. Words meant to fall like gentle rain, or storms that rage within man’s brain. In poetry these words impart where muse has touched a poet’s heart. Ivor G Davies
