Poetry in Motion
By Jfarrell
(inspired by Johnny Tillotson’s “Poetry in Motion”)
With fluidity,
She glides across the floor,
Slyly,
She smiles at me,
A mischievous wink
As I am engulfed
In her radiance;
Enraptured
My heart soars
Touching, scarring the heavens
Freed
To become anything
Everything
I blossom in her very presence.
All this for a woman?
No
An angel stepped down from heaven
Touched my cheek
And said follow
So I follow
With the grace and majesty of an eagle
She has given me the power to sprout wings and fly
She is the very essence of everything
And she has put
My poetry in motion.
