The Poet The Poet, as master of creation, sculpts with words from ideation. A poetic human Lens under sun who must concentrate its rays and in bold exquisite ways tug the Heart and pluck its strings, one by one. In a foxhole, words of Courage, out in Space, words of Hope, on a deathbed, poet's words to feel alive are the jewels within a chest from the heart and head and breast of a poet's driven quest to pen the scribe. And even when 'no inspiration' is the poet's root frustration and no wind to make a flag of words unfurl, Time will tilt the Lens to daylight bending words like rays for clear sight and one breath will hurl that scribe across the world. So embrace the Poet's mission, as you write with proud submission to this self imposed commission that occurs. So that when you speak of Beauty, Love and Death, Truth and Duty, you'll make Shakespeare smile with tears and lose his words. Namyh |

If you don't mind, I'd like to save this. I collect poems by poets writing about the creative process of writing poetry! You have some fantastic lines in this beauty! i.e. ~ ..."and no wind to make a flag of words unfurl," ~ "So that when you speak of Beauty, Love and Death, Truth and Duty, you'll make Shakespeare smile with tears and lose his words." Especially loved those closing lines! Thank you, Poet! EA |

Earth Angel – I am indeed honored that you would want to make this an addition to your collection. I hope it helps with the creative process. I think Shakespeare would like that too. So very glad you enjoyed. Namyh |
