Poetry From the Heart

Painting realities with word wonders Springing verily from the depths of hearts... Poetry exudes truth, delighting souls Whether free verse of flowing melody Or structured, that's criteria-anchored. My liberty bursts along free verse style Cascading serenely midst faith-bliss gush... Meanwhile, standards set my structured musings Capturing vivid scenes through metered counts Showing life’s beauty in rhyme and rhythm. With free verse, I’m driven to explore more And disciplined well to comply with forms… Both help enhance my poetic prowess As I please God, my inspiration source Exalting* Him, sharing His goodness-grace.
*Exodus 15:2 The LORD is my strength and song, and he is become my salvation: he is my God, … and I will exalt him. November 23, 2019 2nd place, "FREE VERSE VS STRUCTURED" Poetry Contest Sponsored by Line Gauthier; judged on 11/28/2019.
