Poets’ Lament

 

A poet paints

form and shape,

with the colors

of his verse

It’s a poets' trust

 

A poet sings

his lament on wings,

melody and beat

painted by spilled ink,

flying poetic dust

 

A poet pens

quieting words

of still and silent love,

poetic notes covered

with a poets' blood

Dearest Dale,
Thank you for the kind reviews on my work. It means the world to me that you would take the time to read my work and then reply because you are such an exceptionally talented poet yourself. I have had the pleasure of reading so much of your poetry and at times I wonder when you will run out of ideas...the point is that you never do! What a fertile imagination, what an incredible mind and what a deep soul. Write on... In appreciation, Chanti
