In a Different Light

Poetry to me
should be
so free
and quiet

It doesn't
won't
refuses
to yell

Yet screams
crying
for attention
please!

Poetry to you
or fool
might drool
raw emotions

Too raw
for whom
my dawn
in room

Quite simply
its reckless
to cast it away
never to obey

To one who
wont because
well never mind
and have fun

You cheat yourself
creatively
instinctively
and humanly

Poetry to us
maybe a fuss
roaring a cuss
forever

But open yours
never refrain
till it pours
like summer rain

The human thing
creativity
is worse to waste
than a mind

I say to thee
for heavens sake
let the mind
unwind

But still
poetry to them
who only condemn
who you befriend

It is only words
no harm come too
like winter birds
its all they do

Its important
to value
life's only
real truth

The truth will
remain untold
the mind of still
and beauty behold

As i ramble
i look around
seeing life
that is bound

Because poetry
is not free
nor quiet
too thee

Let it free
your mind maybe
then you'll see
the real me

So dismount your horse
and come with me
to find the source
that sets you Free!
