Whispers of a Wandering Soul

arqios


Notice of absence from arqios
Be kind….
…. words don’t rewind

A poem is the funeral pyre bright,
Of pulsations once exhumed from the deep,
Now still, yet present in the waning light;
Fueled by the flame of memories we keep.

A poet gathers thought and hope anew,
As golden hours paint the sky’s embrace,
Where burnished hues in quietude imbue
The heart with echoes of a timeless grace.

Poetry, a dream in words unconfined,
Garbed in the hues of longing’s soft caress,
With verses meandering, sweetly entwined,
A tapestry of whispered tenderness.

It takes but one soft whisper, light as air,
To free the wandering soul from despair.

      Too true!

    • sorenbarrett

      Beautifully stated is such solid verse it sounds classic and serves as a good definition for the word poem itself, I think I'll contact mister Webster. Lovely my cryptic friend.

        Sounds mighty serious getting the Mister himself involved! Thanks Soren. 🙂

        Excellent

        A long way from a comfortable armchair to a fired up PC....occasionally I get there in time.

        But then again, none of mine seem to fit the specifications embodied in the last quatrain.

        If you've got it, then go for it!🙂

          And if it doesn’t that’s no skin off anyone’s nozzle! Thanks mate 🙏🏻

          • Doggerel Dave

            And did I mention your sonnet must surely inspire...?

              Suitable praise for poetry and the poet, in this case, you. Nice work.
