Poem About Poetry - Lost In Words Poem by john tiong chunghoo

I hear you loud & lucid, John....In the writers world, turbulent feelings almost always result in sterling verse...Solid Work, HERE...(YOU MUST HAVE BEEN DOWN, WHEN THIS IDEA CAME TO MIND?) LOL! FJR

As the words have to convey the feelings I agree. But it is semantic nonsense. To be lost in feelings is a state of death - nothing exists, and no words can describe death to the dead. Lovely bit of introspective (but cleverly misleading) philosophy here John!

This is actually a very nicely thought over poem....I feel Feelings vs Word power (prowess) .....which ought to be the esssence of poetry? ? ? ? ? ? Very interesting, ......cheers Gaurav

An interesting thing to think about, which are easier to deal with... words or feelings? I'm with you, I would much rather be lost in feelings. Great poem John. Sincerely, Mary

Lovely sentiments, John. Eloquent as ever :) Best wishes. jack.
