~ Pegasus

 

Shy and timid steps

On earthly ground

A sigh and exhalation

Horseshoes sliding over

Yellow dry sands

Observing new land

 

Indomitable and free

Wings still spread

To another song of heart

Fights conducted,

But nobody worn

Silent awaiting for the moment

 

Of immense touch,

Within that magic

Conformity of the soul

Merging with light

Breathing through one spirit

With the poet on his back

Ah yes, the Pegasus, most noble of creatures amongst the fantasy population of the mind. Not quite real perhaps, yet as real as the words it inspires... I can see why you were attracted to write about it. I see the "Observing new land" you mentioned as all the possibilities the blank pages offers to the poet. So I was most satisfied with that beautiful ending: " With the poet on his back" Makes perfect sense, to use the Pegasus to bravely charge into the unknown regions of our art... A beautiful poem Elisa, thanks for sharing! :)

Indeed, Pegasus is intriguing, he leads the poet, to immortality, when words become one with the future ... :) And that thought makes me and I hope many others after my death, happy, mythology is one of my (hobbies) ... find it extremely fascinating ... Thanks again for your beautiful insights. How skittish (by intelligence) a horse can be, how the poet can make them calm, ... and wings are spread ...

This was magical! I loved it, you have such an excellent way with words. Pegasus is such a wonderful, beautiful mystifying creature. It's so fascinating, for me anyway.
There are so many amazing lines in this poem that I cannot pick any one of them because you write so beautifully!
Well done, lovely! xox

Thank you my Scottish Queen :D Love and a hug over seas xoxo :)

O'right. I found it, Dear.
I have known Pegasus as creation of Zeus,
created to be a friend and guardian of Hercules.
Now, here you have penned something for him a bit different.
I liked it. And yes, the lyre tune stirred my soul.

Thank you dear poetess ... :)

Wow wow!! ; ) I felt like a kid again, taking walks down the echoing hallways of my little feet slapping the floor in art exhibits, getting lost in the personal connection to each individual piece I arrive at!! Beautiful poem, in both that your lines are not short and confusing bursts of absurdity, and that they are in compliments with the stanza succeeding. It took this long to come across you on here? lol This is absolutely beautiful. I am so tired and at the same time, I am finding myself most curious as to how you have found what performs as your muse for you. Beautiful job...... xoxo -Mark

Thank you so muchly Mark, your words dance on ancient rivers, and in my ancient brain. I loved the way you brought your review, it is most appreciated, so thank you dearly!!! - Elisa (p.s. I always say: " Eli has a week for the Greek" it is totally true LOL..................

* GEEZ I meant weak, so weak I am at this hour.... :P
