Poets go beyond the rose
Into the petal’s gentle soul
Poets go beneath the bud
To caress the sweet nectar
Poets go into the secret’s liar
Where flowers learn to charm
Poets go inside the heart
Of a lilac’s lavender blush
Poets go…
Past the azure color
Of sky so rich with dew
Through the atmosphere
Into the heavens, where
They learn to inspire truth
Poets go…
Past the shimmer
Shining in the moon and stars
Into the gentle whisper of passion
Peppering the skies with delight
Capturing happiness in the sight
Poets go…
Past the heartfelt caress
Of a soft and gentle breath against
The skin who knows no doubt or qualm
Which might interfere with the joy
In the sensation of pure, cool love
Poets go…
Past the muse that harbors
All the answers to their best poems
Through the melancholy and elation
The grace that brings such insight
Into the spirit’s longing to write
Poets go…
Past the harmony of dawn
That paints the world in lace silence
Echoes through the miracles that happen
When mystery meets with circumstance
And love is discovered in every place
Poets go…
Past miracles that come from knowing
This peace that erases all tendency to harm
And welcomes silence as a best friend, one
Who leaves the heart filled with brilliance within
The soul who feels so drawn to these feelings
Poets go…
Past sighs of eager affection and
Truth that compares to a sweet love affair
Filling up the heart with music and dance
Wishing away every chance of disdain or disgrace
That might keep a heart from this love that awaits
Poets go…
Past disillusionment and humiliation
That comes from not giving into destiny
Discovering the wonders and treasures of
Sweetest intimacy and all that comes from
Being one with the reflections of blessed verse
Poets go…
Past the pain of the past grief
Into the warmth of a hope that knows
Nothing but promise and encouragement
That comes from the assurance of love
That lives inside each poem’s power!
