Tonight you are my poet, <br />I am your words and the world is ours <br />Let us make this a night of a thousand hours <br />United together, we will write a sonnet <br /> <br />Come, my heart, understand me through your acronyms <br />when I place my meaning on them <br />compose me with your poetic state of rem <br />When I reach closer with more synonyms <br /> <br />Bathe in my never-ending verbal musk <br />Drowning in the husky flow <br />As I bask in your poetry glow <br />until the silver of dawn rises from the gold of dusk <br /> <br />Pour out your heart now <br />I am waiting….feeling your heart racing <br />Listening to its beat ……I am breathing <br />Kindle my flammable words, to allow <br /> <br />the sparks of Collins and Webster to unite in flames <br />And together we can produce new vocabulary <br />to brighten the pages of your anthology <br />so to keep the poetic fire burning with more rhymes <br /> <br />because I have been dreaming of this glorious night <br />ever since the beginning of my life <br />The time of wish fulfilment and rife <br />Of literature, meeting with a literary knight <br /> <br />Surely the world will remember the first time in passing <br />When a poet made love to his words ….and they became his destiny? <br />And so our names will be engraved in history, <br />Endless….. perhaps more than everlasting!<br /><br />Aminath Neena<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-poet-and-his-words/
