The poetry in me is silent because of all my pain yet I know that one day soon I'll rise and soar again and string the words together shining like new rain. The poetry in me is sleeping but it will fly again. The poetry in me is sleeping a coma true and strong the hurt I've suffered caused it to withdraw and slide along, the paths within my mind far from the madding throng the poetry in me in darkness will soon burst into song. The poetry in me in darkness will soon seek out the light burst forth in gay abandon banishing all dark night and then to hear the angel's song will be my one delight when my poetry in comeliness has won the victor's fight. The poetry in me is silent there is no need for talk when friends share their thoughts while beside me gently walk and remind me of the poetry they see within my stalk and wait for spring to bloom again with comely voice as vaccined salk. "It is the image in the mind that links us to lost treasures; but it is the loss that shapes the image, gathers the flowers weaves the garland."- |

Woooohaaaaa! It's so great! Poetry in you is sleeping? You have to got be kidding! How does it sound when it's awake then? Very beautifully written, I can't even describe how thoroughly I enjoyed this piece... |

Dawn - thank you for your words of encouragement which are always timely LM - this is what I call a craft poem. it doesn't flow and it took a lot of twisting to come out. My art poems are much smoother I think. But I rave. Why thank you Deepak. I'm so grateful for your encouraging words. Be well Kethry "It is the image in the mind that links us to lost treasures; but it is the loss that shapes the image, gathers the flowers weaves the garland."- |

Keth, this flows wonderfully. The poetry that sleeps in you is clearly dreaming beautiful things! Lotharingia "Dreams are life, reality, creation" Miguel de Unanumo |

Kethry, you poetry is not sleeping it fully awake and screaming loud and clear. This was a powerful read, great poem, and yes words do help heal the pain but you have to want the pain to ease.

Brian, thanks for the comments. I agree about the pain but also know that sometimes the pain is better than the empty void of no feeling, beyond pain.

Delightful read, Kethry...I immersed myself in every syllable. Don't care what people say Just follow your own way Don't give up and use the chance To return to innocence. -Enigma |

Keth, if the poetry was asleep, Id say it woke up roaring with this. Mine was asleep for almost 10 yrs till I found it again here. Thanks for a great piece Richi Look back at your past, but don't stare too long.You might not like what you find |

LOTR, sometimes my poetry sleeps - peacefully. Sometimes it claws its way through the barbed wire fences I build to still its voice. *laughs* Thanks for the encouragement.

This is so true. I love the spark of hope, which is more than a spark. It's shines through the poetry, that I don't find to be so silent. This was really good! Keep up the great work, and continue to win your battle, because I think you can. Keep your head up!! ((HUGS)) "I've fallen asleep, slept so sound. Fallen so fast, I missed the ground" ~Lil OnE~ |
