Poem -
Sculpting The Poetic
Man is constantly building upon
His Love of truth
And his desire
To communicate
That truth
Without diluting it
During
The act of self expression
Somehow,
The poetic
Springs from that desire
To paint its essence
Much
As the eyes do
For beauty
And the mind does
In memories recalled,
The power
In making sense of it all
Lies
In the gifted individual's
Ability to convey
With eager honesty
And dedication
To the recognition
Of the truth
In beauty
And
The willingness
To alter
One's state of consciousness
While
In the act
Of creation
Itself...

"Poets; we write by the light of fireflies. Our creations dwindling with the rising sun. That we are relevant is hubris. But every once in a while we bleed a kaleidoscope of dreams on paper. Love and hate. Light and dark. Happiness and sadness. Rebellion and freedom. Our words flowing through the readers' veins. Their lifeline. We give voice to the soul. It is rare; but then is a poet born."
Keep writing and giving birth to creation Tony. Brilliant ink
I Love you bro!!....thanx for this!!...... huge friggin' smiles!!.......T xo ?☀✴✳
My Dear Brother Poet Tony,
Unlike the sculptors most familiar
Michelangelo and Rodin to name a few
We carve the words of all eternity
Which we display to all of you
We will never be as famous
As those artists so revered
But we leave for you our purest love
From our hearts so true endeared
So when you read these odes we've written
Know they were chiseled from our souls
And we've used the purest marble
For Humanity to extol
Peace, Love and Rockets,
Larry xxx
Dear Brother Poet LARRY!!....while I like to think of myself as striving to remain somewhat humble in this area, I must disagree with lines 5&6 of your 2nd stanza.....for, it is written that the Star of Sir Larry Ran shall shine brighter than the sonnets of Shakespeare and the humor of Mark Twain for all of time!!......thanx so much for this my friend!!......stay groovy.....T xo ?✳✴☀
My Dear Brother Tony,
The only Knighting I'll ever see is on "Game of Thrones". As for "shining brighter than Shakespeare", I'm just happy that I've lived longer. And as for Clemensy, Linda grants me that every day. I hope I've tickled your funny bone.
Peace, Love and Rockets,
Larry xxx

Hi Tony,

I really love this Tony!!...Beautifully written, you have captured the essence of poetry in its art form. words can sometimes paint so clearly that you can capture the image of the artists/writers soul, just as a painter or sculptor captures themselves through their work.
Brilliant
