Enlightened Poetess

by Michael D Nalley   Jul 1, 2011


Perhaps I am often misunderstood,
though I speak many tongues.
I have found a way to reach more
people with my fingers than my lungs,
With words I choose, the rhythm of my
heart and each passing breath.
Touching other poets long after
what is known to many as death.
Drifting into cyberspace more
importantly to a sacred place.
Where the darkness meets the light
we should desire to face.
We must learn to read between the lines
and modern text,
To see the truth about what has been
, and what is coming next.
The master says beauty is eternity
gazing back at its wonder.
I seek shelter from the storm
and dare not steal its thunder.

To Ms Sunshine

    Definately a gift from the Creator to write words such as these;

    "I seek shelter from the Storm,
    and dare not steal its Thunder."
