The rite of words.


I have a warming glow

coalseced in the pit of my soul

giving rise to more profound insights

that are yet to claim their words.

I pray they do find them similarly

in days yet to come, 

but the beats pass unavailed often. 

Author's Notes/Comments:

The rite of words – are the right of passage

The rite of words – are the right of passage. The shift, always emanating from the inside out. Be it a boy that becomes a man – or a caterpillar, that becomes a butterfly.

In such a brief set of words,

In such a brief set of words, the Poet expresses both the urge to write and, in that final line, the frustration that sometimes precedes or follows the experience of writing poetry.  The poem is a very succinct statement of a very profound and---in the way it is presented, and the language is deployed---very refined perspective.  Only a Poet of accomplished experience can make write this way.  The novice would be wise, and further educated and guided, by reading this poem.

 

And thank you for the mention in the note to the poem.  I appreciate that very much.

The poem is Bare Naked where

The poem is Bare Naked where you wrote  note and I wrote back. Sometimes people often say I should post my comments as poems some times and so after a while I thought ok, lets see if I find some glints of brilliance... I didn't find brilliance but i found a few yeah, it could work... :) glad you liked the nod. Cheers
