Within the landscape of the mind <br />In solitude the poet walks alone <br />Composing with the language of the soul <br />Creating images, inspiring thoughts <br />Bright and dark colours of human life. <br /> <br />Questions on how, why and when <br />Death, love, joy, misery, all senses revealed <br />Searching for truth walking the purple storms <br />Taking the blows turning the other cheek <br /> Looking at the stars and seeing God. <br /> <br />Making beauty which touches other souls <br />Memories sweet and bold, lovers not forgot <br />Time and space no barrier to the questing mind <br />Grief and loss given words to let tears flow <br />The poet fulfils his role for the brotherhood of man.<br /><br />Colin Ian Jeffery<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/poet-58/
