Words Not Always There

Twilight in trance and thoughts amiss Betwixt the mind and finger tips Of words portrayed to flowered sight Spoken softly in silken night Paused within a beauteous glare Seeking of words not always there The page reports the poets choice As quill records it's master's voice From angst to star bright moon lit night Beholding fear of writing trite Raindrops flowing from tear-dropped eyes Misty page of poetic cries Broken thoughts for needle and thread The lamentations of the dead Bewildered mind to catch a cloud In sense the trance should be allowed In time with thoughts of blissfulness amongst the plight of willingness A poet tends the mind with care Writing of words not always there.
