Reflection of a Beautiful Soul – A Modern English Sestina
.
I read Her words set down in each poem,
And see the reflection of a beautiful soul,
each line crafted with loving care
and brought forth into the World
for all of us to read and see and
know their creators Heart.
.
For it is with the whole of this great Heart
the poet pours herself into every poem,
baring her every emotion and
opening the doors on her soul.
And what of the World?
Does it see? Does it care?
.
I, for one, DO care.
For I look upon the workings of her Heart,
seeing her carrying the troubles of the World
on her shoulders in every poem,
weighing down upon this wearied soul,
I see it bruised, bowed and
.
yet remaining strong and
still capable of taking care
of each and every soul
that touches her Heart.
She isn’t just a Woman, She’s a Poem
walking through this World
.
and caressing the World
with a touch as ethereal as her thoughts and
light as the ink in each Poem
She writes. I want to care
for this Poetic Lady and her butterfly gentle Heart
and wrap my Spirit around her Soul,
.
so that Her Soul becomes My Soul,
the twain passing through the World,
Two Hearts beating as One Heart,
two Poets writing, creating and
crafting words and phrases with such care
so as to compose the perfect Love Poem.
.
If everyone could touch Her Soul and
the World would for one second care,
perhaps we’d all be inspired by this Heart in a Poem.
