Strum me softly

Missing image

Intangible ideas

form a composition  

of melodies

buried beneath invisible ink

 

looking for identity

in a complex pulse

hidden behind pale complexions

and thick skin

 

soft sounds sing silently seeking solitude

 

the concept of belief

as stone crumbles

unearthing bone

 

distance cracks open

inhaling lyrics, pouring rhythm

from a contoured realm that strokes edges

with a magical kind of lure

 

classical notes of everyday poetry

a breath between October winds

suspended in broad beats

acoustic words - call my name

crashing into air like waves against

a distant shore

 

the night folds around it

tasting its depth

feeling the smooth lines

of affectionate rhythm

falling around my shoulders

embracing me like fragile thought

 

slow hands of composure

probe secret passageways of my mind

mesmerized by delicate whispers

shapes of color

form creation of self

molded from Frankenstein image

brought to life

in the field of a poet’s mind

from the simple strum

of a note

    Aaaaaahhhhh!

    This is so good. Imagery abounds and what you do with thoughts on a note is incredible. I just loved the whole thing. Good luck in the contest...alby

    (oh, and take the apostrophe out of "it's" in the line "tasting it’s depth")...Great work!

    This is breathtaking my friend! Such a calmness flows from your words in this one! Makes me wonder why I have not stopped by more often as of late.

    I love the rise and fall of this, like a long deep breath. It is refreshing, kind of a kaleidoscope perspective for me. I really like that.
