I Heard A Poem Today

I heard a poem today.
It took my breath away.
Its canvas, neither paper or ink.
Nor words, a man would speak.
But carried upon the wind,
and its message made me weep.

I saw a masterpiece today.
Beholding its grace I could not turn away.
The artist was not from this place.
But God above stirred both heart and soul,
In gaping silence my joy did leap.

A good poet can instill emotions through words as well as pictures.

[Cherrie Palmer]

That is so true. A good goal for us all to have.

A beautifully written and heartfelt piece Cherrie. It is a deeply moving and inspiring poem. Thank you for sharing your work with us.

I was thinking about how some of the most beautiful and inspiring things cannot be but to words. Even though we try.

[Carlos Lorenzo Estrada]

I agree. Sometimes beauty can only be experienced. Because there are no words to describe its sublimely perfect nature in language.
