One Stop Poetry ~ Poetry Form Monday ~ Blank verse

A dream enchants a longing restless soul
That seeks the quiet signs in other worlds
Of listless shapes colliding on a quest
To break the monologue of dark discord.
If thoughts could be the breath of secret souls
Then somewhere someone senses equal minds
And words become imagined dialogue
Where understanding springs from clear insight.
So launch the seeds of wishes to the sky
And let them find the pathway to new earths.

Underbar bild på maskros. Vilken vacker växt detta ogräs ändock är. Din text grep mig. -"En dröm förtrolla en rastlös själ". Önskar dig en skön dag! Namaste! Zinnia
This is beautiful, your iambs are really nice and flowing. Really enjoyed the read!
Lyrical use of blank verse
This is a beautiful photo!
I just love this Gemma - written with style and a nod to the classics. Such beautiful choice of words and images.
I agree, SETI should seriously enlist the help of psychics. Dig the theme, concept and execution.
Good work! :D
beautiful words and sentiments. A lovely poem
I'm having troubles posting today!
Blogger isn't loving me and I don't know why.
For the second time:
As John said this is perfect lyrical blank verse. But more importantly it is a beautiful and deep philosophical reflection that takes the reader on an unexpected trip.
Beautiful words and a marvellous photo.
how well you've captured the photo's essence in perfectly lyrical blank verse! great job!

Lovely poem! I remember as a child wishing as I blew away the dandelion seeds. If I had been able to articulate what I wished for, it would have been what your poem says!
Ahhh, very nice !!
