Cherylyn Vardi Poems

Man is an island of thought and emotion
Floating purposefully on aimless seas
Confusion and conflict float on his waters
Bleeding and aching debris
...

Naked wastelands of monotony
Exhausting days of bruising suns
Under a lee of memory
Wayward winds churn crystals to dust
...

Chaotic pieces of tinted glass
Kidnap loitering light
Slivered images of a history
Pause in fluid flight
...

In an Arboretum of towering trees
The major attraction is the topiary
Visitors flock to this botanical art
Deaf to the tidings of twisted bark
...

Syllables plunge into an ancient songbook
Octaves and sestets of obsessive love
Perusing Petrarch's Canzoniere
Iambic portrayals of Laura de Noves
...

Trees of autumn weep their beauty
Aging rainbows fall onto an anemic earth
Intellectual tears of
I think therefore I am
...

Shards of a broken wine goblet
Drift on the surface of withering waves
Dawn dethrones the waning night
Saffroned fingers arouse a day
...

two senescent lovers
lie
between sheets of waning light.
...

A metal rain falls and punctures the morning

Dialogues of dread smother the breeze
...

Cherylyn Vardi Biography

I am a poet who writes in virtual pen I ponder over the passions and predicaments of Man I hear silenced sentences shouting out loud I see fragments of words lost in a crowd I am a poet who writes in virtual pen I pretend that pain is a means to an end Words are on what my creativity depends Accumulated wisdom weeps willows of fear As pixeled pipers lead masses of Man by the ear I am a poet who writes in virtual pen I have found that the purpose of life is to live To open closed pores of society's skin I pray that we wake up before it's too late And rewrite the lines of humanity's fate I am a poet who writes in virtual pen As I post this self portrait in the cyber sky I wonder if my words will provoke silent whys I invite all minds to co-create with me Our individual selves through virtual poetry)

The Best Poem Of Cherylyn Vardi

Auguries Of Innocence

Man is an island of thought and emotion
Floating purposefully on aimless seas
Confusion and conflict float on his waters
Bleeding and aching debris

William Blake offered lighthouse vision
To the mind of the intellectually blind
Perpetuating perils of paradox
To a universe of Newtonian design

To see the world in a grain of sand
To smell paradise after a shower
Infinity breathing through the lungs of a wave
Eternity residing in the heart of a flower

Beauty exists in the ordinary
In the frescoes and sculptures of life
In the struggle of Man to create himself
Not in polaroid perfect delight

Ignorant pillar of clay is he
Believing in heaven ever after
Frivolously ignoring the divinity of Day
Forfeiting Elysian encounters

Man walks erect with eyes wide open
Into the Dark Ages of technical time
Praying to pixelled Providence
His happiness industrially designed
