Papyrus

Furnish the room with ink and paper

 and the bound smell of love

between the lines , artists with words

 penned in velvet covered glove

walk in dreams of past lives,

 follow the flight

 of a white angel  dove

In words I shall find you humming

 heartfelt, kingdoms from  above

Furnish my heart with a book of song

Written in azure ink

Let me find its gold and silver

 thread let me find its  mink

In your sorrows and moments of bliss

let me from your cup drink

Furnish my life with a pen crafters art

Let the chains unlink

So many great lines and you bring out so many aspects of why the written word means so much. Love
"the bound smell of love
between the lines"

and

"In your sorrows and moments of bliss
let me from your cup drink"

Isn't that what breaks the chains - feeling we are not alone?

wow, this is amazing, I love the flow, the imagery, it seems like these words just flow from your mind onto the page, very cool.

I really like the phrasings of some of the lines in this piece.

Your imagination is well expressed in this colorful poem. It's interesting to note that papyrus paper is still made, in limited quantities, by hand, much the same way as it was thousands of years ago. The words almost sound like a prayer, although I don't know if that's what you intended. If you did, and you are spiritually inclined, it's good to think about the gift of complex communication, including the written language, that our Creator gave us.

a beautiful dreamy poem with words that float into the readers heart
with a sense of lulling and soft passion, a wordcrafter's enchantment

As always, a lovely and shining poetic pronouncement.
Readers share your love affair with words--that is why we read you; that is why we would have you speak far more often.
Enchanting work, Moon!

A beautifully crafted piece.
