But A Mere Pen! [Original Poem]

But A Mere Pen!



Being the silent witness, I see-
I, the slender sentinel soul,
art oracle and destined thoughts
from the lance of inspiration!
A fragile, yet fierce weapon
to fight the other side of light.

I rejoice like a hummingbird bloom,
I danced upon the parchment,
and my inky feathers are unfurling!
The alchemy of expression,
Only the poet can decipher;
the unknown whispers of mine.

I streak the vast cosmos of paper
like a voyager of the midnight meteor.
Leaving behind a trail of stardust,
luminous and fleeting,
Painting the velvet tapestry
of a blissful summer night!


I became a compass with the poet;
Guiding through the labyrinth
of their incognito thoughts.
Navigating the boundless sea,
Of dreams, desires, black thoughts
I explore through the depths
of the subtlety of human existence.

Poets pour their heart and soul
into my inky well of conscience!
The ink, a river of their essence,
flowing from their core thoughts.
The cathartic torrent of emotions
swims the imagination sea.

The poet paints their dreams;
I; a guardian of words, by which
the poet weaves their stories
into the tapestry of time!
Leaving an indelible mark
on the collective memory of mankind.

I am a celestial bridge
between the mundane and
the mystical journey of stories!
I am but a mere pen, and they,
the poet; a true creator of self!

I say this a bit too much, probably, but I'd like to hear this as spoken word.

Also...

Hi Nicky!
Thanks for your comment. You can listen to this using Peakd.com; they have a feature called 'listen to post'. I hope you enjoy it again.
Best wishes!

Eh... thanks but that's not the same as spoken word! :)

That's "robotic". Great if your eyes are tired from reading but never a good thing for poetry!

I'll wait to hear your expression of it some day, rather.

Until then 🌸


You are right. I'll definitely give it a try to recite my poem. You will be the first one listening to my spoken words. Thanks for the inspiration.

Best wishes!

You earned 1.000 PIMP for the strong hand.
They're getting a workout and slapped 1/1 possible people today.

I like this. I see many images of a simple pen, going forth mightily into the world of words. Great cadence and choices of words. Very nice!!

Thanks for the wonderful words. This is truly inspiring. Best wishes for you!

Wow, this is beautiful. The way each word moves into the next is a beauty worth seeing. Reading this took me on a journey, and the words sink in.

The words make the entire notion of this composition. I am so happy that you liked it.

Yes, it did. You are welcome 😊.

I write to myself with feelings, with pens loaded with experience and verses blooming with life.
