-- The Poem Never Cries -- John Herlihy The poem never cries, Only whispers and sighs. There on horizon’s edge, Joy and sorrow’s wedge. Lost in a well of despair, Found in the core of prayer. Tears run down skin deep, The poet’s heart will weep. Words as embers of fire, The eye of beauty to inspire. By mystical breath touched, So open hearts be brushed. The poem never really cries, On pure emotion it relies. - - - - - - Copyright © John Herlihy Friday 21 April 2023

WHAT A WONDERFUL PERSPECTIVE, JOHN...AND SO TRUE! PAPER AND PEN ARE JUST THAT...A PIECE OF PAPER AND A PEN, NOTHING MORE. HOWEVER, THE WORDS THAT ARE FORMED ON THE PAPER BY THE POET, CAN BE EMOTIONAL...AND CAN 'TOUCH' THE READER, WHICH CAN PROVOKE....A READER'S TEARS. ENJOYED...LOVE, BLESSINGS AND FAITH...HIS+INSPIRATIONS

A poem carries you like the wind to where the poet wants you to go.

So open hearts be brushed. With a feather of hope and a kiss on the heart, poetry is off at a real good start. :)

A unique insight, John. IMO... one of the beautifulness's of poetic expression is how each writer observes and expresses so differently from his/her compeers. Consider, if you will, a group of poets in a circle around the same tree holding hands. Each person sees, or perceives, a different part of the same reality, (the tree) and the only way you can get a more exhaustive understanding (of its totality) is to change places with someone. Enjoyed your thoughts. Peace... rlc
