BEAUTY AND THE ROSE

[Guest guest]

I wish to write a poem of beauty and love,

A sonnet of homage for our mighty Lord above.

Beauty is the doorway to feel the Divine,

A red rose at sunset is perfect and sublime;

It's perfume fills the air and freshens Being,

To see the rose in bloom is a great gift of seeing.

It reminds us God is Love, that's unconditional,

We praise Him with all our worship reverential.

 

A worried man walked along a busy street,

Lost in dreamlike thought, he saw nothing but his feet,

Until he passed a florist and glimpsed a blushing rose,

He felt, God bears my fears, he knows, he surely knows.

His burden became much lighter and he strolled along,

Whistling quietly to himself a sweet devotional song

oh yes, you are a poet, no doubt. thank you, precious!

and it reminds me something written about my friends, the poets....

 

 

the poet is

like a flute

shaping the breath

into a melody

true poet's life

is shaped

into a breath

of the divine. . .

hollow from self

touched by intuition

life breath becomes a tune

in the symphony of being

 

and

 

when you read/hear a poem

and it touches your heart

it is because

you yourself

are the endless

poem

of life

 

 

 

 

shabbat shalom all!

in love,

yosy
