The touch of man.
Slices through the willow with great despair.
When the stars have reached boiling point.
Ending upon ending, they weep.
Brothers and sisters speak of the sky.
They wish it had been them instead.
Shining with great ardor....

Inspiration creeps out as the poet writes
What is poetry?
To me it rhymes,
No its more than that
It’s a story that highlights
More than highlights
It breaks free
A loose canon and a crack on the screen
It hurts, it leaves a wound
It inspires it pursues
Gives hope to those that need it
And resonates with those who don’t believe in it
It’s a form of writing
It’s a bridge that connects p...

Poetry is:
the first breath and the last,
and everything in between
every future, every past,
and language put to dreams
It’s when a soul escapes a man,
if only for a time
and with that moment finds a mate,
and writhes around its mind,
when God spoke life into the earth,
t’was poems on His lips,
in rhythm man did rise in in mirth,
in forms did Christ we kiss

A poet is only as good as their definition of poetry.
A poet could poem a lyric from nothing at all
nonsensical, definition of poetry that is
A poet could come up with a rhyme in no time
iteration, shows the poets true dedication
A poet is only as good as their definition of poetry...

It's so hard to exist on guilty conscious,
with knobby, knocking knees,
I chase after elegance,
And ignore candidness.
To write is to gut oneself,
to script in blood,
to subject the belly of the craft,
to the belly of your soul.
Such artistry,
it bewitches me.
Yet, there is no jazz in my tune,
there is no melody in my rhyme,
and certainly no grace,
no element to anchor.
Through and through,
I am...
“When is something beautiful?”
All creation appointed to seek the reply.
But the wind carries the celebration of angels, swirling all around!
The sight of mountains and rivers overflow my heart!
Fractions of time bending and winding.
You remain still…
but the earth does not.
The patient mind awaits.
Revelation pursues the sound.
“When you decide it is.”...
When you spoke and the world followed,
“I AM.”
The whispering of the stones.
Sunlight reflecting in the air.
The sing of the stream and the path it takes.
Animals and all their secrecy.
Essense of the soul with all that flows.
Ideas brilliant, sung, and long forgotten.
Even a moment’s glance.
In all things, love exists.
In all things you reside—eternally....
How beautiful it was to laugh together.
The alignment of us, here in this singular moment.
Will you remember that we existed, here, like this.
Sisters, four of a kind.
Faded memories but the moment was there, somewhere in time we existed.
And it was well....
Scream out for hope.
Though the roof is silent there is rejoicing.
Recognition of beauty, become my truest joy.
Think of what you have found.
What you have forgotten....
