I watched your words
Shadow past the meaning
Leaving all to wonder
Mysterious

Hints

Choiced here
On parchment page
In unaware
Flitting towards flame
But never leaving
Demanding grey

Illumination still
From reflection

I watched your pen
And understood

We are lit from within
But deny

so shadow past
our words

Well, that was a clever addendum to your title! haha No one would want to be conspicuous by their absence by not reading and replying to this one! hehe

Yes, I also write from my heart. While my writing is pretty straight-forward I have a great deal of admiration for poets who make me think and try to discover what they are trying to convey. Often, I have discovered after reading the author's and other's replies, that I had completely missed the mark and that my interpretation was way out in left field. That can sometimes be embarassing. But I'm learning to interpret the nuances as I continue to read, read, and read some more!

Great poem! Great thoughts!

it is amazing how we can see ourselves in the pen of another...how we seek others 'words' with which to relate our insides to...but then again poetry is so much more than words...which is just what this excellent poems says....wonderful write cpat

Sunshine..
Quenched in flow
of words squeezing out
from layers of sediment

thanks for the comment my friend

EA.. shows how dumb I am..wasn't even thinking of clever ways to get people to read this or reply...( chuckling) although I can see how it might work...

thanks for the comments they are appreciated.

JB Exactly...and not quite all... ( smiling)

White Rose... you are too kind..just scribblings of thought. on my part..

Brian..in my case it is a 15 watt that has a few years of grime on the surface..so not likely to need those sunglasses around anything I write..

thanks for the words my friend...

Ron

Across the dusk stolen grass
a web of finest filament vibrates
touched by breeze unseen

a home or tomb?

For some reason you inspired this...enjoy your writing, as always...with a hug!

Cpat, It often seem the words not spoken are the ones which say the most in all the poetry I read here.


Enjoyed,

Love this !
especially:

"I watched your words
Shadow past the meaning
Leaving all to wonder
Mysterious"

Well done
