The Incarnate Poem (revisited)

When life is breathed into written words, they manifest into something so much more than thoughts and ink… – Syl

 

36250f21678d84f384b9948eb875d6cb--chinese-wedding-tea-ceremony-white-chinese-wedding-dressYou manifest yourself from my words

The incarnate poem, I write each day

You are a descendant from the rib of the first man

Equal in stature

Never looked upon as second class

Your elegance raises the hairs upon my skin

Your essence skims along the surface of my soul

You bring forth bold words from a humble heart

Through the eyes of God

I see and understand your true beauty

Inner light that glimmers on my brown eyes

Word for word

You form the soul of the poetry

Released letter by letter

From within my heart

*

From within my heart

I offer what I can

I offer what I understand and comprehend

of love

Words relate part of this saga

Penned from my soul and pinned to yours

There they reside and live forever

A living poem connecting souls

Connecting minds 

Connecting hearts

Letter by letter

Breathing inside us

  1. Reading these words and actually each of your poems is the proof that love must be the origin of all poetry. This is the most beautiful tribute to a beloved person. Amazingly deep, Sylvester.
