Poetry is a tranquil balm Healing for one’s frangible heart A symphony of peace and charm The tempo climbing up the chart. Healing for one's frangible heart A roam through undiscovered land The tempo climbing up the chart Led from the palm of the poet's hand. A roam through undiscovered land Idioms of dreams fantasy Led from the palm of the poet's hand An escape from reality. Idioms of dreams fantasy Scenes from a golden long ago An escape from reality. O’er the breeze fond echoes blow. Scenes from a golden long ago A symphony of peace and charm O’er the breeze fond echoes blow Poetry is a tranquil balm. 13th December 2020

Reads like a good contender to me. Poetry can be a balm or a flame stirrer for it is so versatile it can be anything. Enjoyed reading this one. Thanks for the visit to my page. I appreciate the time spent there. Sara

Ah, Belle, a most beautiful pantoum. Indeed, poetry is a balm for breakable hearts. I love the use of the word "frangible", a wondrous word. I melted into the splendid and healing spirit of your soothing poem. The vivid yet tranquil imagery truly is a "A symphony of peace and charm"! Warmest wishes.. ~Susan
