Notes About The Poem

7.00pm March 23, 2025

NNB: Not entered in the contest, Prisoner of Poetry because this poem came late. 

Prisoner of Poetry

Captive of spells by all rhymes and verses
Seized in tangs of thoughts and emotions
I gain joy, love, comfort, strength and wellness 
They rob my stress and tensions.

As ink spills down from my deepest blood streams
I release my imagination with thrill
All my hopes, wishes, aspirations and dreams
all freed by the tough handcuffs of my quill.

Poem is a sanctuary of my peace
A cloister where I ponder and meditate
Another calm place to pray on my knees
I feel, slavery of words is my fate.

Devoured by my passion of poetry 
I’m like a craving monster, so hungry.
