The Poet in You

In the embryonic state of your mind …

There prevails a gamut of treasure

That attempts to stir your spirit

And melt down your soul to unwind …

Laura Simoes

Tenaciously one beholds an array of poetic verses and stanzas, capturing their flow of harmonizing rhyme, as dusk settles down and the earth has spun its course into a new evening and into the thin air of night. The mind is defiantly passionate as it invigorates the rhythmic verse, adrenalizing and quickening its pace, vehemently seeking to obscure the innate shreds of fervor and content … waiting to be penned.

That … dear friend … is the neophyte of a Poet in You!

Nebulous as it may sound, each individual is conditioned, in their own sphere, to be a poet. What does that behold? That is an illustration … a predominance … which manifests the sentiment that poetry is a commemoration … a celebration … inlaid in each one’s mind – a mind which is structured in intricate patterns and archetypes – purely an exemplar, molded to such perfection, to consummate the nucleus of a poet. Yes, indeed, a poet, sated with vibratory celebration … adorned with lush creativity … embellished with immense spirit … that seeks to inspire and uncover an artistic vision. The inlaid paroxysm can barely hold on to its appetite, akin to the erotic smoke of incense, fervently spiraling its way in an upward stream.

The zeal of a poet in you may be vivacious or dormant – dynamic or distant. Only you can resurrect its psyche. You are the author … the visionary … of a spontaneous derivative or a sluggish cocoon. It is your imaginative genesis which adheres to respond to either category.

Innate in a poet rests a visceral perception that retorts with zest when triggered, or burns out when approached with dampened lethargy. It hinges with hunger and pleads for freedom – an unrelenting accommodation to open the heart – energizing an ardent soul – enticing the spirit in you to unleash a creative manuscript with festoon and warmth.

The mere frustration of an under-used mind may stifle the poet in you to a constricting state of decadence … a place of confusion and atrophy … where the soul succumbs to unworthy emptiness and decay. The uneasiness which flows thereafter, merely accentuates undue lament, surrendering the mortal to an abyss. The mind passively yields to waver with dissonant fluctuation, as it seeks to comprehend that which has surpassed.

You are inlaid with some traits of a poet in you … you are garnished with blossoming seeds of poetry. Your prayer is that of a poet – a poet with relics of idiosyncratic creative infusion. Allow the vision in your poetry to measure the abundance of formation. Seek not to disdain your innovative self, but to satiate your mind in all that beholds creation, for you preserve a treasury of exceeding poetic wealth … a genre of verse waiting to be read… a synthesis of pure manuscript waiting to be embraced by its fetal state.

Seek to salvage your poetic vision … for your vision is but the creation of your mind. Discard any blemish that has inundated your soul. The poet in you will activate and blossom if you care for it … if you feed its thoughts with food and nurture its presence in a way that is gracious and bountiful. Allow the poet in you to escalate to heights that transform your mere existence … that alleviate the impeccable adornment to recognize that you are a poet with all the freedom and values within your boundaries!

Instill in you a devotion … a passion … that unfolds your poetic ventures and you will embellish your captivating innovative achievements. Your audience will be ornamented with a wreath of rhyme and verse, as you embark to surf the gigantic waves of creative ocean you possess.

Eventually, strive for perfection and light up the darkened arena of your essence, as you journey your stride in creating your poetry. You are the emblematic Poet in You!
