What is poetry?


Reading books RomanceThe unity of form and content is what distinguishes poetry from other areas of creativity. However, this is precisely what titanic work implies.
Not every citizen can become a poet. If almost every one of us, at different times, under the influence of certain reasons or trends, was engaged in writing his thoughts, then it is unlikely that the vast majority will be able to admit to themselves that they are a poet.
Genre of poetry touches such strings in the human soul, the existence of which a person either didn’t suspect, or lowered them to the very bottom, intending to give them delight.


There are poets whose work, without exaggeration, belongs to the treasures of human thought and rightly is a world heritage. In our electronic library you will find a wide variety of poetry.
Opening a new collection of poems, the reader thus discovers a new world, a new thought, a new form. Rereading the classics, a person receives a magnificent aesthetic pleasure, which doesn’t disappear with the slamming of the book, but accompanies him for a very long time like a Muse. And it isn’t at all necessary to be a poet in order for the Muse to visit you. It is enough to pick up a volume, inside of which is Poetry. Be with us on our website.

in the distance
As if my mind deceives
This watercolor fancy
Of loveliness perceived

O’ dare not move a muscle
I fight against my will
A breath might break the silence
As if all time stood still

A crisp cool wind a’ blowing
My heart does skip a beat
For but this man of simple means
An angel comes to meet

I do not wish to startle
Nor cause an ounce of fear
If this is but a truthful sight
O’ pray let her come near

The sun it is not moving
No shadows formed to play
As this angelic vision
Walks to me this day


With open armed affection
She takes me by the hand
And leads me to my fantasy
Then whispers of her plan

This day shall last forever
No setting sun to fill
As if such joy was meant to be
And time it does stand still


Be My Island



Drowning, fearing for my life
Sorrow spells my fate
Rapidly I move this pace
I pray it’s not too late

As my breath escapes me
My vision seems to fade
Lost, I reach for something more
Among the shadowed shade

Blurred the banks of borrowed past
Pass before my eyes
Darker clouds now congregate
Atop these sunny skies

Deep and overflowing
Sadness fills my heart
Will I ever love again
My desperate thoughts embark

When now within this river
Much more than a dream
Your love appears before me
An island in the stream


Waiting there to save me
Upon your golden shore
Sweeter air that I may breathe
From one I do adore

Hold me here forever
I kneel before your throne
Take this life which you have saved
Make this man your own

Protect me from these waters
With your love pristine
Forever be my island
Steady in this stream


Afar a Distant Light Doth Shine



My heart shan’t bring desires more
Than what thy precious love hath lain
Thy beauty o’ mine eyes before
Of merely words shall not explain

A calling for the fragrant find
I shout of wonder ever kept
If this was all the world hath known
Upon this pillow I once slept

Awakened fore the sun doth shine
Hath not the lead to make it be
Lest one is all who learns its way
Standing here in front of me

As if decided long ago
Time doth fold its arms above
For what my life shall come to bear
Is nothing more than perfect love

Afar a distant light doth shine
From o'er the east it beckons true
Glistening in light to see
Now brought upon this night anew


A glimpse O’ caught by weary eye
Rejuvenation doth proceed
Pure beauty in a beacon flies
A passageway to love from thee

We walk amongst the trees of pine
This bed that soothes the feathers fall
Serene in all the tempers heat
Often fleeting in the call

If in the hectic canopy
Of life that travels quickly through
We do not take this time to breathe
Events that capture just won’t do

When beauty forms within the path
Take thy walk with love astride
Banking on the afterglow
Of everything it doth provide

This heart it beats so you may smile
For truth will raise its simple plan
O' stand with me for evermore
A vision that shall understand

Mountains forming of our view
Which bear a mighty appetite
Proclaim the path be closed to all
Except for those whose heart is right

Bridges fall to depths below
Portals of a dark dissent
Splinters fly as shards reveal
Carriers of discontent

Cliffs of jagged rock prevail
Attempts to stop our daunting quest
Shadows move to disconcert
Weaving glances to invest

But we shall scale the caverns tall
Our flame to light the darkest path
As joyful tears will reunite
Our hearts in glowing aftermath

Climb aboard my shoulders broad
There is no weight I can not bear
Wherever we are deemed belong
My loving arms will take you there

O’ come my darling, call me home
Let your lantern burn so bright
Guide me to thy wondrous heart
Lead me with your love tonight


So Soft is the Sonnet of Willows


Such is the heart of a dreamer
Sought after deep in the mist
Seeking the quest of a thirsting desire
Falling to nights just as this

Peering the distant endeavor
Calling the places I’ve known
Sending out visions so endless in wonder
Standing this ledge all alone

Come to my heart always steady
Shape it as how it should be
Teach me the ways of your unending song
Lyrics of comfort to me

Lift me for thou hath once spoken
Take from my words on the page
Collections of feelings I wear on my sleeve
Shine me the light of your ways

I am of clay so unmolded
Bend me and shape me to form
Open my heart with the keys of your love
While dying I wish to be born

Caverns so wide as I forage
The depth of their wisdom vast deep
Shadows that follow the pathways I walk
Stairways my heart it doth reach

Yours is my desperate reason
Clinging to every fold
Challenges lie in wake of the storm
Northerly winds blow a’ cold

I shan’t recoil destinations
My mind it is set on the prize
Temptingly so it does fan every flame
Come I shall soon realize

Time for the moment an enemy
Season’s of past now I fear
For as I declare my longing for thee
Wishing you ever so near

Trapped as I traverse the mountain
Chains of my pain garner tight
Reaching for avenues lost in the fog
Blinded by darkness of night

Time I will relive the mornings
Joined by a perfect content
Welcoming sun rise as everywhere glows
Finding the hours we’ve spent

Trusting that no one is watching
Holding your hand on the street
Wrapping my arms round your waist for a while
Kissing your lips soft and sweet

Words that will require actions
Motions in spite of the sky
Threatening with clouds overhead as I walk
Waving the past a good bye

Now as my life is beginning
Fortunate flags sure to wave
Sending a secret embedded in stone
Caution for this I do crave

Asking this long winded journey
Steps in the grass for to find
Destiny praises my unfettered dreams
Spent as the heart does unwind

Yours is the hand that I reach for
Save me in spite of my tears
Love me for many more wars shall invade
Filling the city with fear

Run with me out to the fields
Keep me in sight at all turns
Paint me with colors so vibrant and true
Teach me for I want to learn

I can not be so untrue
Pressures no longer to hide
Truth is my shield as it shines ever gold
Honesty I shall confide

Come to my heart it is waiting
Here in this darkened abyss
Shining so bright for your eyes now to see
Longing for you that I miss

I promise you shall not be sorry
Taking this chance is the key
Found in the corners of words so inspired
True as my covenant be

I whisper my truth through the mountains
Breathless I run to the shore
Hopeful I patiently wait your reaction
Longing for you evermore

Soft is the sonnet of willows
Psithuric winds form the stream
Blowing so that you may welcome my peace
Singing the songs of your dreams

Mine is a tiresome journey
Fortunes all cast to the bay
Every dollar I’ve owned as a man
Spent in a fortunate way

For this is my precious possession
A heart that does beat from above
Carefully showing the face of the plan
Showering you with my love

Rain on the valley of passion
Petrichor scent brings the breeze
Take from this night the joys of affection
Lingered in fresh memories

This I do pledge, crossing my heart
No longer wishing to die
Rivers of hope that do wash on your feet
Sent forth attempting to try

Cherishing love that I find
Wanting forever to be
Everything that you do see in your soul
All that’s expected of me

I am but only one person
Doing just what I will do
Being myself in the face of the storm
Sending my love up to you

There is no mask I am wearing
This smile you see is for real
I can not be something that I am not
All of my life I reveal

Hoping that you understand this
Praying my words written of
Things that my heart wants to tell you my dear
Penned now with only my love

Such is the heart of a dreamer
Seeking not silver and gold
My only dream is that you love me true
Just as my dreams have foretold

So soft is the sonnet of willows
Wind through their branches blows free
Whispering dreams evermore shall come true
When you are standing with me


Mornings with you




Upon the weeping willow tree a goldfinch sings her song
Beautiful her sound to me, my heart is full of love
The skies they turn a shade of blue that never has been seen
For on this day this little bird does sing her song to me

Perfect is her melody this morn amongst the dew
Whistling she sends her sound forever to be true
So happily her harmonies, a part of springtime days
Like flowers o’er the field a bloom in all their magic ways

A cool breeze sends her wondrous tune about the countryside
To hear her voice each morning makes me glad that I’m alive
The music of the early dawn to start each day brand new
Affection that does fill my soul on mornings spent with you

I listen every morning as I prepare for my day
To hear the goldfinch morning song as it does come my way
So sing to me my little bird your song sent from above
And shower every morning with your perfect song of love
