Blitz poem

Thoughts on life

Education enlightens
Education encourages thoughts
Thoughts of goodwil
Thoughts of divine
Divine devotion
Divine presence
Presence of mind
Presence of conscience
Conscience is the inner voice
Conscience opens eyes
Eyes are the windows of soul
Eyes on statues
Statues of marble
Statues of Michelangelo
Michelângelo's peita
Michelângelo's David
David and Goliath
David means beloved
Beloved country
Beloved city
City of lights
City of angels
Angels are guardians
Angels are kind
Kind as mother
Kind as saints
Saints and sinners
Saints of the Catholic Church
Church of our lady
Church of charity
Charity does't boast
Charity begins at home
Home is where heart is
Home is where you hang your hat
Hat's off to you
Hat of straw
Straw hut
Straw man
Man of principles
Man of means
Means to an end
Means and methods
Methods of teaching
Methods of meditation
Meditation benefits
Meditation enriches
Enriches life
Enriches soul
Soul ...
Life...

Author's Note

The Blitz poem, a poetry form created by Robert Keim.

I'm not familiar with blitz poems, but upon reading I felt it was a train of connected thoughts that lead from one thing to another in order to see where it leads and ends. As I read the previous comments, I think that idea was correct. I really liked this train of consciousness and seeing how expansive and jittery the human mind is---almost like reading my own thoughts in the way they jumped about. This means that even an unfiltered mind can be poetic, or perhaps it simply attests to the vastness of what poetry can be.

Blitz Poem: Where the poem is Niagara Falls and the reader is the barrel.

Thank you JY, for reading, and for your wonderful thoughts.

[‘Thoughts In Time..]

Amazing wonderful- going to show when we let the mind just be what thoughts come to be and even though we might think it does not make sense once written and returning to read it makes perfect sense- the mind knows how the thoughts should flow but the heart leads the seeds that need to be planted- a blessing granted- wonderful🌹

[Mrudula Rani]

A blitz of thoughts, random, first things that comes to mind. This is new to me. Never heard of Robert Keim, but it is interesting and is also quite revealing about you and what you think is important.

Wow... I have never consciously set out to craft one of these but am mightily impressed with this example of a Blitz Poem.....it is amazing where we go and come back from when we allow ourselves to think freely and without the encumbrances and constraints of guidelines or rules.........Have a good un my friend.....Neville

[Mrudula Rani]

The guidelines for Blitz poem are few, but staying within inspiring thoughts is a little work. Thank you for taking time to read and expressing your wonderful thoughts on this poem.

Incredibly moving! And literally - moving from one thought to another via distance and mind, spirit and words! To write like that, mind has to free itself from logic thence into a free will of its own. Thought association: starting with a seed and creating a forest.. ending with a bright clearing.

Brava!

[Mrudula Rani]
