Trace the words
Contour of mind
As slowly moves
The quill in hand
Image is formed
Heart keeps vigil
As I trace words
The world is still
No breath stays
Ideas spill forth
Even simplicity
Priceless worth
Eyes follow now
Glancing minds
Inner peace is
Obtained, I find
Verse complete
Tranquil heart
Thought reborn
I once more start

Vinay Leo R.
Poetry & writing to me are to me, a breath of fresh air in a life that is sometimes covered by the smoke of sorrow or self doubt. They also become the sweets I share to celebrate when life offers me a reason to. But most of all, they are to me, my life. For each word I write is a piece of my heart, a thought that just had to find its way into the world.
A truly beautiful poem and image!
many thanks, Mary 🙂
