The Poet

Extremely avid in his art;

Determined constantly is he;

Prodigious is his graphic mind;

Love dwells within his poetry;

Zeal mingles with the wit he bears,

Supplying his sagacity.

Absolutely BRILLIANT! The simplicity of the lines and the complexity of the lexicon mixes in such a way to evoke deep thoughts and vivid imagery that simply erupt from between the lines. A fabulous piece of poetry that is deservedly popular on this site. I will delve deeper into the rest of your work on this site for sure. Cheers!

it is poems like this that I envy,.. I love words, I am usually wayyyy to wordy as I have so many jumbled up in there and they want to play, bounce around and animate my mind and the page that it is hard to condense it into something so powerful with such few of them. you have done such a wonderful job with it. The more I read this, the more I really like it. It appeals to my intellectual side and the artistic musical one. awesome work.

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it. I too have a similar problem with words.....the ideas I have tend to be lengthy that I rarely actually have poems as short as this. So sometimes I envy people who write a lot of them as well. But more often I'm happy with my eclectic self. I play with whatever form the poem wants to take and leave it at that.

This is perfection! I have found myself to be part dreamer, mathematician, cryptologist, and puzzle piecer. You have encompassed all of this within such a small space. Nice job!

[emipoemi]

Thanks you (the cryptologist and metaphysicist in me is coming soon....keep an eye out)

Oh dude, the more I learn about meter, the more I appreciate you work. Nice variation in the fifth line
