Poetry in Motion

Missing image
Where no teller begs
the profits
of soul expression
on paper.

A random thought
in circular motion
bumps the square thought
located between
the Left ear,
and the Right.

The flow of poetry,
where the mind and heart
gather energies
forming silent words
on paper
that reads a tune
of Self!


Author notes

Prompt:
what do you think poems are? what does the music in poetry do?

    Thank you for this entry into the contest. I like the picture you linked - the waves remind me of Hokusai, the image and the poem have a Zen quality that I like

    the tension of a rich simplicity

    "A random thought in circular motion" I really like this line! This is bright and airy. Good stuff!

    I also really like the pic you have posted with this poem. I think it captures the message very well.
