Therapeutic Value

A calm whisper tickling the ear.
Through the wire, drawing near.

Transmissions from the brain to the throat.
Vibrating vocal chords, waves rocking a boat.

A secondary world in a primary mind.
Hopes and dreams and near-drawing time.

Come to the morals and freeze at the thought.
These connections, these two minds, cannot be bought.

Entangled in wonder, so tightly perfected.
Once present fears have now been neglected.

A gazebo to shelter, while sheltering each other.
Worries and anxieties, the rain will smother.

Crashing around two bodies holding heat.
Enlightenment to the lips, panic below the feet.

Author notes

I haven't written a poem that rhymes,
In quite some long time.

    Haha even your author notes rhymed! This is strange, or perhaps I just don't get what it's about. However, I can tell you have a very good command of language, as they say! Keep writing, oh yer, and a merry Christmas!

      I have my own ideas as to what it's about, but I like to try and keep my poetry somewhat ambiguous, to allow others to interpret in a way that suits them best. Thanks for the comment!

    GETTING? Pshht, you have no idea girl!
    The air I breathe is getting sick of me breathing it in because it feels the intelligence within me.

    Well, I'm really not that conceited...hehe.
    But it sounded cool.

    Very cool, and very good use of rhyme.
    I liked the idea, let me guess, it's about you and your boyfriend communicating via the telephone?

    I liked how you chose to execute this. I'm so glad you finally posted a new one!!!!!!!
