The Poet
I would say, Poetry is an art in verse.
From deep inside the Poet brings out
Revelations of self, nature, life.
Poet, Poetess - skilled writers in verse,
Paint for us imagery of abstract thoughts,
An art that can "move" us to the core.
We "see" what they write and reflect
On images conjured up in thought,
A master-piece created for lovers of the
craft!
Craftily, pages come alive with expressions
That emotionally move and sway,
Removing the unwanted yesterdays leaving
only the now.
The Poet captures and engages the minds of
the audience,
Whether from the platform or silently reading,
Spoken or written words echo in the stillness
of the air!
Poems can ignite passion, calm the soul, create
Thoughts and provoke eloquence in speech,
Which awakens the "sleeping" soul as the orator
reads.
Bursting with passion from within,
Love stories come alive and, O,
Climax slowly like crashing waves
dissolve upon the shore.
