is the unmistakable look of love
sparkling in another’s eyes
Tender interaction between mother and child
no matter what species
this love needs no words.
Poetry is
music of the wind as it plays
for leaves and grass to dance
or,
lifts waves to rise up, crest
wanting to be seen.
Poetry is
in the man or woman, alone
wandering with shopping cart
transporting their home
from one street to another
to begin again, anew.
It’s in the rain which plays
its own symphony of words
a slow, slow, tickled trickle on skin
or, the mighty roar of gigantic waterfalls.
Poetry is life in perpetual motion
This moment now
each new thought given as a kiss
to lips which open with the
eagerness of petals waiting new days
touch of morning dew.

Love is poetry
Romantics are addicted
Poets are its slave.

love is waiting
Yes, poetry that is able to walk and talk and sing and rest. It is pure love. To be able to write inside every breath, so beautiful. I love the last phrase and the “tickled trickle” of thoughts here.
Sorry so late, little people take precedence over other things. 🙂
This moment now
each new thought given as a kiss
to lips which open with the
eagerness of petals waiting new days
touch of morning dew.
sweet lines 🙂
Beautiful piece.
Yes, poetry is … all of that … and we are its slaves – lovely
Yeah it can bring tons, emotions and fun with ease, even some fleas. haha
“poets are its slaves” . You captured poetry, its aspects and its inspirations lovely.
Romantic in places, down to earth in others.
“Poetry is life in perpetual motion.” is the line that will remain.
Beautiful piece. Thanks so much!
Woww and yes can see it here…poetry is everywhere…..
Poetry is the earth… it is in our soul! It’s there when no one else is. You’ve described poetry to a “T”.
When writing the bond is strong
Many tender and poignant images here, romantic, yes, in all senses of the word. k.
You’ve defined poetry well, Bren. I came to the dVerse prompt late today, thus won’t write to it; but I don’t need to. You have said it all.
Pretty and thorough and seriously romantic, addicted, enslaved to the poetic self within that is stirred by so much as you say quite well, amazingly well here. Great poem on poetry!
Gorgeous.. beautifully expressed.!
Hello, This is my favorite daydreamer poem!
Too many good lines to quote.
Poetry gives life itself access into our world, and allows us to enter directly into life’s forces. Your images span that spectrum of what life itself offers us of itself. That we find love there, through poetry, is truly amazing. Your poem is a true reflection on this power.
You’re so right..it’s in all of life..the beautiful moments and the deepest hardships..so beautifully expressed.
I’m with Claudia…poetry is in everything that touches the soul of each person…that’s what makes it unique.
Thanks for sharing.
Peace,

I like that life is in perpetual motion ~ It can capture all there is under the sun and more ~

This moment now

Very beautiful…
Poetry is into many things. We see it such if we care to appreciate. It’s because ‘Poetry is life in perpetual motion’ Very well crafted, Bren!

I LOVE THIS!!!! My favorite among my many favorites of your poems. I especially love the last three lines…….WOWZERS! You knocked this one out of the park. And it’s a BIG park!!
“Poetry is
music of the wind as it plays
for leaves and grass to dance”, love that!

Love is poetry

Poets are its slave.
Truer words I cannot imagine. Thanks.
Poetry is rhymical…I love the line: its own symphony of words!
Music to my ears! I love it!
The tender interaction between mother and child
no matter what species
this love needs no words….you caught me early on with that one…love your walk through of each layer…i particularly like poetry as the homeless as well…poetry is in the perpetual movement of life…like that much bren…
you touch an important topic with this cause i think there’s poetry in everything and real poetry is always connected to real life and emotions..
