Sicelo Sithole - A Walk To The Library

2014-06-15 9 Dailymotion

With bended knees <br />Along those forbidden trees <br />I am stunned by all this fresh smell <br />It must be a bakery, a garden, a wheat valley or a poetry mortuary upon a spell <br /> <br />Along these deep sounds of science (I see) <br />I breathe upon the tears and the raw gush of all this silence <br />It must be a day for all the lost moonlights, <br />A magic show or a sparkling breeze upon this cold twilight <br /> <br />In my poetry still, I walk around and speculate <br />In this walk to the library, I think of the old secrecy and calculate <br />Words that I could write <br />Words of beauty so true, they can unite <br />All men under this garment of stones and all these shadows true and bright <br /> <br />I see bright doors and golden gates <br />The sweet rivers of old lies and the faithfulness of all the Virgins <br />And through these soft images and faint margins <br />I change all spells, into seeds of thought for my only walk to the library <br /> <br />Bound by my own imagination and unseen realms <br />I gasp and walk slowly towards a common position <br /> <br />To this library I wrote, this silence I saw and to this dead belief <br />I have found the taste of all this poetry in motion <br />The waves of change, catching the awake of all my dreams <br /> <br />In your poetry I have learned how to find all the missing links <br />I guess it is truly, <br />The only reason why God allows me: to freely read, write and think <br /> <br /> <br />To Diana Van Den Berg,16 February 2009.<br /><br />Sicelo Sithole<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-walk-to-the-library/
