POETRY OF THE SOUL

 

 

I write poetry

of the soul;

of the heart

 

I have an intellectual side

but

the concurrent force

of heart and soul

is always permeating

the expression I wrought

from within

 

There’s always

that opalescent jewel

of wisdom

whispered from muses

 

It is pure vision

of creation

It is an artist

in pursuit of oneself

 

It is a poetry

of reaching; of grasping

at the wind

and flinging caution aside

 

and yet it

is limited in scope

& discipline

 

but the soul is crucial

It must always exist

concurrently with the heart

 

It is a poetry

seeking truth

and enlightenment

 

and in Buddha quest

it continues

along the path

 

It is a poetry of love’

of life; of beauty;

of the ability to create

 

It is a poetry

of peace, love and understanding
