In answer to some 'brilliant' criticism

Contributed by Euphoria on Tuesday, 3rd September 2002 @ 08:47:28 AM in AEST
Topic: oops

Is this constructive criticism,
Or direction-less efforts to intelligent witticism,
Intelligent or not, certainly direction- less,
How about this;
Perhaps you need a vision,
You need to see beyond yourself,
To see others and their thoughts amidst words,
To the beauty of things not as they are,
But as they can be,
You need to see,
Beyond reality,
Then you shall understand;
Isabelle Christina and the mystery of the rain,
Perhaps there will be less disdain,
In your criticism next time,
And dare I say; there might be some
Intelligent witticism…
Have you ever heard the sound of silence?
Has there ever been an aura around you?
Of light that caresses your very soul,
Have you ever heard life speaking from with in your veins?
Have you felt the lips of wind;
Giving butter fly kisses on your smooth forhead?
Have you ever felt that higher state of consciousness?
Brought about by a web of words?
The question is...have you ever felt?
Or do you only look for a stupid rhyme?
A simplistic chyme in expression?
Its a misconception, a deception;
You flatter you self with,
Contention won't get you any where;
Respect for others will...still;
I respect your thoughts;
And must commend your alacrity;
But if you can see;
There not much difference between painting and poetry,
Both are declarations of thought,
One on the canvas of your mind,
The other across a canvas of cloth.

Great write I feel what you were saying the whole time. But maybe you should write with heart, just playing. Hey Great write.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
