Ways to communicate 

Translate

A way to form a question to bring an answer

Translate

The choice to depict the truth when taught

To translate a method of language for our body

A body of sight that allows us to read

Translation of our true abilities

The bodies way to visually translate

A vision pieced perspective to decode

Messages to mend breaking codes

To translate to bring into clear message

A useful tool explaining all

Language to translate body image to see

To speak towards sculpting the translations

An imaginary line divided by personal frustrations

Boundaries and constant limitations 

The struggle of an honest translation

Also, this could possible be put in Sonnet form, note the poem "Who but God" by Daniel Turner. Sonnets I guess are very unique, I know because I have not came into to form with one as yet. There are certainly the different line stanza forms which I have utilized. Take care. Kristina Whitmore November 29, 2017 at 11:46 AM Thank you for such a constructive comment! I appreciate the suggestions and look forward to working more on this piece. I believe it is rewarding to have another read my work and assist me with their perspective that may bring more poetic justice. Love the idea about forming a Sonnet even if I have not had many opportunities to write them I will study and try! Have a great day!

Freddie Robinson Jr. November 28, 2017 at 5:34 AM Powerful, thought-provoking poetry, Kristina. Your pen resonates profoundly. Your laser focused words brings much prismatic coherence to my mental molecular vibrations. Collecting refracted thought-light is your divine blessing. A golden pen voice gifted to you, which you graciously have chosen to benevolently share w/us wisdom starved souls. Great poetry. Supernova bright write. Love and joy forever. Kristina Whitmore November 28, 2017 at 11:47 AM With this poem I connected to the imagining of how life may have been for my grandfather whom was a Naval Captain. It was always a dream of mine to follow in his footsteps. I would of work with communications and wrote this to honor that memory of a life path possibility I never accomplished. Thanks again for such a lovely comment! XO
