Poetic Masterpiece Poem by Chinedu Dike

Poetic Masterpiece: A Childbirth Of Profundity.
Like delivery of Divine Revelations,
Which favours calmness of the wilderness,
It is brought forth in the Creative Glory of Solitude—
An abode of Enlightenment in whose mirror of grace,
Purest passions reflect out from shady reality
To gratify the inflamed curiosity of the Inward Eye,
As it wanders around the source of enchantment,
Seeking, in expanded awareness, to capture
The essence of a phenomenon shrouded in mystery.

In a blessed, serene mood with passionate intensity,
Mind labours hard to replicate images being
Unveiled in the exalted realm of thought.
With illuminative wizardry that nudges the limits of speech,
The wordsmith, graced with the breath of poetic creation,
Gives life to words—
Freeing them from their rigid implications.
Soulful words that sway the soul of the reader,
Leaving the excited spirit with an enigma to ponder:
Such is the sublime nature of every Poetic Masterpiece.





AUTHOR'S NOTE

Poetry is a free flight of creativity in the serene beauty of a transcendent world. It emanates from the deep recesses of the subconscious mind.

Painted on the canvas of a 'POETIC MASTERPIECE' are the intricacies and essence of poetry as an art, or what one may refer to as a critical probe into the essential nature of poetry.

In the poem, I have portrayed ingenious works of poetry as extraordinary creations—conceptualised and birthed in their authors' sublime moments.

Intuitively, it is known that when creative energy is ignited by passion while in a blessed, serene mood, the poet or poetess, poised for their artistic creation, sometimes begins to hit transcendent moments. They rise above the limitation of their physical level of consciousness to be favoured with 'The Breath Of Poetic Creation'.

During those impulses of inspiration, words are wedded with amazing skill and finesse to create sound, visionary clarity, and impact on a complex reality that is not easily accessible to the senses—a phenomenon that, in any other forms of writing, may prove quite cumbersome to depict.

A sublime perspective, a delicate crystallization of the purest passions while in mental solitude, and exquisite care in the rendition of words to utmost justice are the indispensable tools for a masterful poetic design.

The prize is an exclusive preserve of the devoted, intricate mind.
