words
stir souls,
awakening heart,
striking mind as flaming darts,
assuring us dreaming never dies.
pen
progresses,
lustrously so,
with expressions
free spirited on paper,
music
playing
rhythmatically
lyrics on the back
jumping within my thoughts
world
born anew,
vision of poets'
sparkle in hands,
imaginings ascending to sky.
Poetry-
salute it as
the sun in the night,
fetching with it only light;
illuminating the lane it walks.
..........................................................................................................................Consider this as a poetry thurday prompt.

ReplyDeleteI loved this poem. I am taking my time to get around Poetry Thursday's entries this week but thanks for visiting me. My favorite stanza was the last one.
ReplyDeleteThanks deborah, cate and clockworkchris. I appreciate your visits and comments.
ReplyDeleteI love this. Words cascade, falling, hitting the page, my favorite way of writing.
ReplyDeleteI love the phrases and the visual effect you use. I sometimes use a cascading effect in my poetry, too.
ReplyDeleteLike this phrase "Vison of poets' sparkle in hands, imaginings asccending to the sky."
