unveiling

arqios


Notice of absence from arqios
🕊 🙏🏻🕊️

 

In verses plain one seeks to find
An essence clear to free the mind.
For words can twist and often bind
But truth remains in verse defined.

In a forest of ornate lines
a tree of truth whose roots entwine.
In simple verse its presence shines
Clear and bright to whose ears incline.

Each word chosen and crafted tight
a poet’s quest to bring to light
not by dark nor endless night
by crystal truths each verse takes flight.

In tangled woods of prose we stray
On lilting verse the truth holds sway.
A path of words both clear and grey
Guides us through each and every day.

                              i agree - verse wins over long winded prose any day
                              keep composing
