Silver Thread

The plight of a poet's words having no one to read With our souls full of emotions needing to be freed It's our duty to show others a world through our eyes Breathing truth into subjects doing away with the lies Where the ocean kisses the tan sandy shores Anything sounds seductive with well placed metaphors Beauty in the words so that they can loudly speak Or as they softly murmur as listeners they seek All along just wanting to be read and appreciated While admiring the beauty with their meanings well debated Spring, fall, summer, and winter all gorgeous seasons Describing each spectacular one's way to be teasin So let's ride upon the moonbeams brilliant glow Listen how echos bounce off planets in perfect flow Using our words of poetry to be descriptively read Showing how we weave words with silver thread
