Poem: Sometimes I am Poetry
In my pursuit of poetry
I have come across excellent thoughts
Not the ones clothing me with ego
But those which are selfless
Allowing me to submerge myself
Into nothingness
I have come across a vast area of Silence
Not even thoughts lived there
It was a garden of nothingness
And only my heart could see
The lush wilderness of emptiness
That occupied the fibre of being
I was the substance of Silence
Inside the molecule of nothingness
That roamed the vastness of this eternal realm
All of existence was swallowed by this beautiful garden
The pervasive feeling of loneliness was not welcome here
I could feel the elusive substance of my being
Totally naked inside the bowl of life
I could feel my true self
Not tainted by knowledge
Or any fabric of materialism
I could feel the words (poems)
Oozing out of my being
Poetry is found deep within
The substance of my being
Sometimes I am poetry
Don’t be offended
When I touch you or feed you poetry
I am a breeze
Sometimes a blizzard
And many times just a clear sky
Illuminated by the light of poetry
