You had the right idea Ms Dickinson,
to love and pine
from afar
Away from society's close speculation
and
over inundation
that would rather
keep you in their jar.
Ms. Dickinson,
you write so often
of the rise
and fall of love
But should it so alter
I wonder
when we do falter
or can it not
boost us up and above
Oh my dear Ms. Dickinson,
your era
reminds me
when man was a gent
even after
woman's relent
and loved her
for endlessly
You had the right idea Ms. Dickinson,
to flee society
to live in perfect peace
to not let them in
All over
again
and to let their rumors
eventually cease

This poem reminds me of these words of Christ: " ... Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid. ..." (St. John 14:27) And: "... If you were of the world, the world would love his own: but because you are not of this world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you. ..." (St. John 15:19)
ReplyDeleteAs for the poem I miss rhythm and rhyme.
INVITATION
Invited hereby to my site
please be. You see I poems write
and knight like fight and youth alight.
This poem says it. Godly, right?
I want more readers. I want you
to come as if out from the blue
and tell me what I write is true
and make my motivation new.
Why you? This is not spam, God’s dear.
I stand by what I do. I care.
Your senseless love to me I fear.
I mean it. I am good. Take care.

The Bible is just not to pass by. :-) But tears and smiles are always anew.
ReplyDeleteYou can surely write.
I enjoyed your poem to Emily Dickinson. You and I share an obvious love of poetry - particularly the classical style. You might like my poem here:
