POETRY

poem by: Ja Ja
Written on Jan 21, 2018 

Poetry, is not just
The rhyming of some words
It’s an expression of a feeling
Which a heart shepherds

A rhapsody of heart and thought
Immersed in joyful bliss
Or dashed upon those rocks
Of agony’s abyss  

Pictures made of words
Painted by a quill
Words that dance and twirl
At the penman’s will

The fusion of a thought
With the gift of soul
Emotions that are freed
Without any control

The sorrow of a heart ache
Set in rhythmic prose
The rhythm of true love
Which, two hearts compose

Visions sketched in words
For everyone to see
Desires and their dreams
In hopes that they will be

The harmony of lyrics
A mind and heart have spawned
Set in melodies of verse
To which, we all respond

Great poem, A vivid and yet clear portrayal of a poet or for that matter a poem.

Good - but don't forget that imagination has to be 'spawned' and not just arrived at by accident.
