Woven are these pages in poetic verse, With bare threads of our deepest feelings, You will find laughter, tears and remorse, and words of wisdom, prayer and healings. 1 The words herein form an anthology of love, From the pens of poets from around the world, It's a love only possible through God above, Creating a bond of friendship freely unfurled. 2 Sorrows drip from our pens so poignantly, Elegantly too our joys are expressed, We can even imagine things we cannot see, With imagery, our loveliest thoughts are dressed. 3 Metaphors and simile express the fire, that smoulder in the bosom of a writer, who only seeks to send to you with fond desire, a verse to make our weary lives much brighter. 4 The poet mines the cave for treasures sought, Walls encrusted with images from the past, Chipping away at a long forgotten thought, Emerging with gold nuggets at long last. 5 The entry of Divine words must be first, because they always have the deepest meanings, And they are able to quench our deepest thirst, In spite of all our ailments and other misgivings. 6 Such highlight gratitude-assertions today, Rippling with blissful hope for tomorrow, Dispelling woes breathed-out by yesterday, Assuring God’s presence midst blessings’ flow… 7 Emerald emotive urge surges in opulence on rhythmic passionate flow of poems, Earnest yearning rippling on relevance, Verses shining, glowing, sparkling like gems.8 Poets polish leather letters with feather fingers, Every word wild like the waves of the ocean, Passionate paragraphs parade with clingers, Full moon highlights heights of heavenly motion.9 If words were gold coins in a silken purse, We would seek their worth in our dealings, And we would wish to have recourse To those gifts of verse they are revealing.10
