PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

a marble column of strength
in my mind stands behind
each name
Joe, Victor
not sure why
but
the name brings to mind
stead fast will
surrounded by rings
of pure flame
strange images for the mind
to obtain
then leap into my unassuming brain
a strange recall
perhaps
or a vague image
from some short history
worthy story
I once read
carefully word woven
to teach me
this or that particular
thing
is hard to say
but
for the moment
I found myself
captivated
so carefully
that I chose
a moment longer
to stay
and I found a
gem of intellect
in a sea of
empty talking vessels
hopping around
aimlessly
just hoping to be
entertained
and wisely enough
then this very poem came..............
