The Eye Of The Poet Poem by Sandra Feldman

The Eye Of The Poet

Rating: 5.0


The eye of the poet,
Sees differently,
Things that are
Things that will be.

Moved by emotion,
Love, Poetry,
The poet looks,
For essentiality,
Nature, soul,
Humanity.

The essence of Life,
Of feeling, of Love,
The wonders we see,
What we should be made of.

The eye of the poet,
Wants to see,
Beyond the sky,
Beyond the horizon,
Beyond the sea,
And understands
That in Life's Symphony,
Its only Love
That sets you free.

A nice ars poetica. A fine tribute of a poet to poet.

Oh, I hope others can pick up on what is being said here...this poem is not just words thrown together, they are well thought and more than that, they are making a profound statement, the eye of a poets seeks more than rhyme or rhythm, emotion is what true poets recognize at the voice of the heart, ...the poet looks, for essentiality, humanity...life, love, wonders...and then pointing that this is our lot in life as a poet! ! ! ! eyes, wants, understanding, it's only love that sets you free and when this is absent in poetry.....we have failed, Sandra, you are an awesome poet, this should poem of the day! ! ! ! !
