![]() Upon the page the poet’s heart is traced Indelibly, remaining for all time; The soul exudes sheer elegance and grace Free flowing or constrained in cadenced rhyme. The finest gold and silver of the earth, Beside the poet’s pen, cannot compare, Completely lacking the intrinsic worth Of rarest renderings so freely shared. These priceless gifts indeed have made me rich, Sweet tender words that touch me to the core, Or comic tales that leave me in a stitch Of laughter 'till I'm rolling on the floor. With pen in hand the poet doth impart Exquisite treasures mined within the heart. ![]() |

What an awesome sonnet, Denise! I love it, all poets should read this beauty ![]() And, of course, my library would be honoured to have this poem ![]() Take care, Melissa~ "Poetry is not an opinion expressed... it is a song that rises from a bleeding wound...or a smiling mouth" ~Kahlil Gibran~ [This message has been edited by Melissa Honeybee (edited 10-08-2001).] |
