Poem Artwork
you are christen'd captains,
gatekeepers and gatherers of
invisible words that float
in messages once bottled up

keep guiding them to the island
of your shores where knowledge
washes up in bottles of curiousity

you have decided to dig up the secret treasure
and dust off the particles of neglect,
and release the breath of untold stories,
stories that forevermore now find their way
to the earpath of those who hear
and gain a new purpose for existing

so go swiftly, be valiant
and above all. . .

P-lant hope
O-vercome obstacles
W-alk by faith
E-levate expectations of genius
R-epresent the under-heard for

T-hey LISTEN
A-ssert your delicious mocha pride
L-et your subconsciousness rise up,
K-eep yourselves humble

F-orget about failures that may haunt you
M-ake history;

YOU GOT THE POWER!

First Cynth'ya, let me say congratualtions for being chosen to be their guest,
I know they are going to appreciate such a grand tribute to them and their cause.
I agree, poetry seems to have fallen into silence over the years, maybe with someone putting the emphasis back on the art, that so well deserving..maybe just maybe, it will too be resurrected.
Awesome write!

Lisa
