Life’s Dance
For The Love of Poetry
Cherished words
Drizzle onto the page
To stain with love
and etch in verse
Those wishful thoughts
that crave
To bloom
Orchestrated imagery
That rests
in subtle
intrinsic
threads
The beauty
of life’s
symmetry
Like a well woven song
Weaves
Retrieves
The inner hearts spark
A poets words
Births a light
That sanctifies
the dark
Creating
Resonating
That which thrills
As it spills
into the minds eye
The answers to those questions...
“Why?”
To illuminate
in silent song
Ignite ones sight
Where truth belongs
To put the right
Inside the wrong
Where once was weak
Let now be strong
Yes poetry gives
the mind a chance
To unscramble
As we amble through
This gift bestowed
On the me
The you
Where clarity can sit
Within a poets glance
The very essence
That is
“Life’s Dance”

Beautiful Gwen, strangely I was thinking about why I am compelled to write this morning. I came to the conclusion that it channels the unbearable voices in my head. I dont know why others write. Your words are elegant and meaningful...hugs xx
Wow Marion we have both been thinking about why we write poetry. Yes it’s an outlet for me I think. Sometimes a purge even. Thanks for your comment my friend and many hugs to you xx
Excellent poetry Linda
Many thanks for stopping by Linda and sharing your kind words x

Jim as ever your words are always so encouraging and supportive. Thank you for being so kind here on Cosmo and leaving such wonderful feedback on poetry xx
You are one of the Best here...Peace
Lorris...I don’t feel worthy of such a wonderful compliment. Like many I wonder if I am any good at all. Thank you for your generous words of encouragement. May peace be with you also x
Beautiful words on a beautiful art form x
Wow thank you Tina, your feedback always means so much. Many thanks for your kind words to this poem. I hope life is treating you well xx
Dance the dance we do it all the time.
I dance around the trees as I cut them into beauty, but make them bleed.
I guess everyone's a tree, or flower or seed.
Dance with joy again dear friend.
Stunning words of kindness Liliana...I swear your feedback is always a culinary delight to the writer/reader...for you feed their soul with such beautiful responses to their work. Thank you for being such a creative and deep thinker x
Wow thank you.
In real life people don't respond to me well as kindness often goes unnoticed or taken as harsh, as truth has become another language and hardly spoken, unfortunately for me I'm fluent.
But so comforted to read and relieved I'm not the only one.
There are all of you.
Smiles and grace and great attitude and brave of face.
So proud and blessed to know that you all exist.
Liliana you shine to me my friend. Just keep being you and you will always shine y your brightest ⭐️xx
I believe this may be one of the best descriptions of why writers write I have ever read....it's in the flow of it......the ability to shape words/phrases as thoughts pass into and out of the mind as one writes.....THAT is extremely difficult to capture within the confines of a poem....but somehow you've bottled it beautifully here,.....it is ready to be shipped off to the masses G!!.....this is most excellent poetry!!......PINNED!!......Bravo!!......LOVE & ROCKETS!!......T xo : )
Wow Tony this is truly a wonderful reaction to read. Thank you love for always delving deep into my writing. For your constant support and encouragement. You have really helped my confidence when it comes to the written word. So glad this poem spoke out so clearly for you :) xxx

Wow Poetessdarkly I can’t thank you enough for looking back on my poetry. You are truly a kind soul and I am so grateful to find your lovely words 🙏🌸x
