Synergy

She seeks poetry 
through tarnished silence 
Amongst the dead 
shattered voices 
on parchment 
Curve of her hand 
splitting fountains 
of words 
Picking stars 
like flowers 
Arranging each 
sunken stem 
Watching blackbirds 
peeling bask of trees 
Their movement 
repeated simultaneously 
Bowing their heads 
towards infinity

The search for poetry picturesquely spelt out in words of power.

Indeed so, it is always a search, a journey to go beyond what we see at the edge. Our muses take us where we need to go. Thank you for your insightful comment. Greetings Kornelia
