PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

for a few years

I was a poet in name only

listlessly going thru the motions

and trying to live on unearned laurels

but now passion is seeping back;

the fire is relit;

the gemlike flame in the soul

gently glowing iridescent laminations.

the literature & poetry

is coursing through my veins again.

The Poet has reclaimed its place

as the quintessence of my being.
