When Mighty Words Of The Poets Take Flight Poem by Captain Cur

When Mighty Words Of The Poets Take Flight



When mighty words of the poets take flight
accentuating themes of new delight;
migrating aptly to heralding greens,
steadily climbing unfolding their wings,
cadenced by rhythm each opening line
awakening thoughts, the drumbeats of mind,
desiring beauty at the height of their quest,
proffering knowledge of life, love and death;
voyaging sadness, determining course,
discovering the sinfulness of verse.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
I originally published this poem under the title, 'Discovering The Sinfulness Of Verse.' I could not decide which title I preferred, so I published under both. Pirates, they can never decide which ship to plunder first.
COMMENTS OF THE POEM

A poem by any other name, still carries the same fragrance, perhaps. This one certainly has a richly aromatic essence. A clipped, almost staccato cadence, marshalling the reader along briskly through the bold images of each line. Well done, good poet!
