Our voices are as varied as the colors and patterns
Of autumn leaves swirling
Through an electrifying landscape of muse and introspection

Our voices sail upon conceptual winds of imagination
Gathering into an incredible mass of written breath

Revealing words created by foreign shapes
And indigenous designs

Skillfully placed in order by moods and perceptions
Randomly arranged in an impromptu earthly dance
Of cosmic proportions

Flowing though our hearts
And filtering through our minds

Our voices stimulate and infiltrate
Attempting not to regurgitate
The same old same old

Seeking to improve the content and quality
Of poetic priorities and artistic conquests

Illustrating the strength to endure
The echo of our own reflections

In effortless gestures of loving expression
In strenuous moments of truthful endeavor

In dreams unfurling the consequences
Of our fears and doubts

Such are the voices we share
Independently daring to survive
The depths of our own visions
