Dedication to a Poet

Dedication to a Poet 

MIshel Reyes 

August 2023 

As T.H.S. Elliot 

 

In thown letters of love, 

Where about 

Whence met? 

 

Welt in thine sky 

So far away what felt to her knees 

 

Her heart 

Felt the same? 

 

Regreting every note of yearn 

Defying the odds of dew 

 

I dream of the perfection: thine love 

 

Resenting the inaudible 

Are thou death, mute, blind like I? 

Never admiscible to bleed the affection to yearn love 

 

My tears year passion,  

The crackles of birds baffle 

 

You fell in love 

Where about 

Why not together,

I think these words are more than deserving of a far greater audience than the thirty fleeting visitors who passed this way before me ..

I don't know how you managed to keep the spellcheck red & blue highlights, but I think it is probably a stroke of genius .. All in all, a fine and original dedication ..

All Good Things, Neville

:S :D

This love poem is so full of wonderful lines and word choices. It is layered meaning and I enjoyed reading it.. Well done.Incidentally how did you keep the spell checker working? Could never do that. But then I couldn't write this poem either.

"You fell in love, where about, why not together?" One sided love is no picnic. Baffling birds notwithstanding.

Longing and unanswered questions about a love that seems to be distant and unfulfilled.

Interesting combinations and images. "The crackles of birds baffle "
"Defying the odds of dew "
"Welt in thine sky"
These give pause for thought.
