The Laws of Attraction
(A lone voice whispers)
Do you believe in the laws of manifestation
When I started writing poetry
I visualised being the best version of:
John Duffy Poet
I could be
So
Look up
John Duffy Poet
On your search engine
Of choice
Will you be surprised if I'm the first name you'll see?
The question is:
Did I manifest a top ranking via Poemhunter
Or do people like you, still like and explore poetry, and use it as your own regular form
Of self-psychiatry?
And sometimes enjoy
sitting under my supernatural vocabulary tree
And reading these strands and whispers
I conjure out of The Great In-Between
And label them as my version of inspired
Poetry

WARMTH
In your eyes visualised my immersion.
My wobbled heart pulsated: ‘Please do respond.’
Your glow of eyes reflected my passion.
At last we were tied in social bond.
Desired delighted days on unison.
Thought emotion to flow like stream endless.
But initiation, evolution
and extinction! That’s natural process.
Days passed ! Couple stepped to higher status.
Parents give family,priority.
Rearing children, life turned abloom lotus.
First and foremost ! Responsibility.
Compromise and adjustment in each step.
Only WARMTH I need ! Passion to escape.
When we communicate with another
Via verbal or written correspondence alone
We have no idea what that person looks like
So we form an image of our own
Sometimes that image is close
Other times completely incorrect
Always so interesting to see
If they look like we suspect
Hypothetically ,wouldn’t it be an intriguing experiment
To gather a group of faceless P.S poets we have connected to
Without speech or interaction
Ask each person to guess just…who is who?
I wonder if anyone would choose correctly
If there were similarities in what they had visualised
Or if they are polar opposites to our minds image
The way they look a complete and utter surprise!
We're the watchdogs of the government
The voice to the voiceless
The hope to the hopeless
The way to your salvation
The path to your righteousness
The key to your pathway
We're journalists!
We keep you entertain
We communicate to the president the people's plight
We investigate the activities of corrupt leaders and make it known..
We risked our lives in the war front to cover stories
We don't collect gratification
One microphone changes the heterogeneous dispersed audiences view
We're journalists!
We make known the unknown
We visualised for your eyes to see
So many work behind the camera we actualised
We give justice to the unjust
We avoid segregation
We give orientation
We make many fame
Their names heard beyond the universe
Our content is a guide for all to follow
We solve the unsolved
We're wide!
We breached the language barrier
We make complex words simple for the layman
We provide platforms for your potential
You just imagine a world without communication Radio television and social media... You just imagine
Shafts of light pierce the gloom inspiration speak Those pictures in the mind paint my private space A well within-images, in the mind dreams and visions and things not known. in visualised expression rivers,rivers stream from my mind spring forth images,to find Within the soul of my experience Unconscious seeds of tomorrow's joy, waiting the warmth of encouragement lay dormant, seeking inspiration's light From this confusion, the mosaic of ideas harmonizes, First an outline,then in silhouette,each unique line,a perceptible signature, and more personal than diary.This spontaneity releases the extrovert squeezed out as rain in an arid world Artistic inspiration paints itself., .A confusion then evolves into the particular scattered here and there,colours everywhere. succinct,complete of itself, never to be reproduced it stays unique,of me,for all to see
I spent my day shopping for Rubies
And entered an old antique store
The owner took me to the back of the shop
Showed me a set and had me begging for more.
The one that stole my heart was a deep red
Encrusted with small pearls
In two layers around the heart
This was the ideal gift for my green eyed girl
Red is the symbol of love for eternity
It was our fortieth Anniversary
I visualised it around my wife‘s neck
There was no happier man than me.

I read in solitude, I found peace.
I read with love, I felt exulted.
I read when I was lonely, I got a companion.
I read when I felt sick at heart, I embraced ecstasy.
I read histories and spoke to the people of the past.
I read biographies and met my mentors.
I read fantasies and widened my jaws at the magic lamps.
I read poetry to master vocabulary.
I read war tales and realised the value of peace
I visualised orphan kids and felt the pain behind hunger pangs
I read love stories and learnt the best life lessons.
I skimmed through adventures and learnt embracing fears.
While I read,
I became a sailor and traversed on salt waters greeting the storms,
I turned into a detective and loosened the knots of unsolved mysteries
I sang with the cuckoos, danced with the dragons and merried with the magic mats
I felt pain, I felt love, I endured every emotion of my unknown friend.
Read to explore,
Read to exercise your brain,
Read to travel,
Read to know another world,
Read to socialize,
Read to boost your morale.
Read children read, for it makes you what you thought you could never be.
(Valentine's Collection)
50.
I drown within your most beautiful eyes,
through wonderful visions of precious love.
What visions I shall come to visualised,
come my beloved to Heaven above.
Sapphire eyes do become my paradise,
I now join your dreams, my beautiful dove.
I now swim within your lagoons of blue,
entranced by the blue sheen shining love-light,
Ever I see the glory that is you.
I lose myself in your eyes shining bright,
you are my delight.
