Poet Tree

 

The way words twist, like roots

underneath weathered boots, stomping

out the sound, that gives the verse a beat

Poetry, grows under our feet

plants a seed in your head, deep

In thought, in sleep

reverberates until it is ready to break free

cracking through the surface to become a tree

 

It nourishes, like a steady rain

flourishes, as words start to mingle in your brain

until you can no longer contain, or hold them in

they leap from your head to the page

like bugs jumping 

leaf to leaf in dance

words provide the stage

to avoid the downpour

they hide amongst the plants

 

Poetry flows like water from a leaf

sinks into the world beneath

from air to land, from oceans to sand

the words come from everywhere we stand

everything we see, each river and sea

every lake in between

every hug from you to me

it's in the people you meet, friends that greet

smiles and tears, every fluttered heartbeat

 

Poetry, the way words fall from me

like leaves out of an old tree, silently

landing on the page

congregating in piles

formulating sentences that span miles

journeys of heart and mind

take us beyond the ordinary

into a world of wonders to find

 

 

Thanks For Reading.

Peace & Love.

Kyle.
