The Space Between The Words Poem by Lorraine Margueritte Gasrel Black

The Space Between The Words

Rating: 4.4


A Zen moment suspended in space is
the sound of silence and the music of the spheres
non shall capture and hold the golden notes
that sing in all hearts and spirits
because that gift is meant to soar

Poetry's magic is the awe that a thought leaves
or the impression that elevates the mind's eye
but mostly the song of inspiration leaving
its footprints for everyone to follow
to cherish, to share, to give
and to shine as Poetry's star.

This makes perfect sense! What I love about a good poem is how it makes me FEEL. How it affects my emotions and my spirit. You explain it so well here, and you didn't have to hit me over the head with it. Just plain and simple. Well done! Linda :)

Yes, this is definitely about all that white page that surrounds a poem, Lorraine. Glad you understood the quote in the forum. The mystery of a poem is...well...what makes it a poem and also what makes it soar. Nice work. Raynette
