it is magic
that can't
be measured,
that takes place
within the purity
of our hearts,
where deep dreams
and moonbeams collide.
Poetry should move us, it should change us, it should glitch our brains, shift our moods to another frequency. Poetry should evoke feelings of melancholy, whimsy, it should remind us what it feels like to be in love, or cause us to think about something in a completely different way. I view poetry, and all art really, as a temporary and fragile bridge between our world and a more pure and refined one. This is a world we could bring into creation if enough of us believed in it. This book is ephemera, destined to end up forgotten, lingering on some dusty shelf or tucked away in a dark attic. Yet the words, they will live on in memory. I hope these words become a part of you, bubble up into your memory when you least expect them to and make you feel a little more alive.
Pick up a copy of Ephemera today on Amazon.
Most of us have experienced a moment of perfect peace at least once in our lives. In these moments we lose ourselves and feel connected to everything. I call these mindful moments. Words can’t describe how complete they make us feel.
These moments are usually fragile, evaporating in seconds. What if there was a way to train your mind to experience more of them? It’s deceptively easy and requires nothing more than a subtle shift in mindset. My new book, Mindful Moments, will teach you to be much more content despite the chaos and imperfect circumstances continuing to unfold around you. Upgrade your life experience today for only $15.99 on Amazon.com.
Love,
it is magic
that can't
be measured
yes you are right, love is unpredictable, sometimes someone loves someone else so much that it will make him suffer. On the other hand he hates people who will make him happy. Love is about the heart. And the heart can't be controlled.
That is so true. Love is a mysterious thing!
I agree with all the facts stated in this post about poetry. I’ve never written a poem but I have a few times done lyrics and I must say it does change my mood for better exactly how I feel listening/reading poems.
I believe that the poetic perception of life is the greatest gift. You have such a gift. You who embrace wide horizons and see farther and deeper than the eyes of an ordinary person. Thanks for the beautiful poetry.
Thank you very much for the kind words! I'm coming up on my sixth year anniversary writing on the blockchain and I'm glad there's still interest in my work!
hello dear friend @ericvancewalton good afternoon
Beautiful composition, poetry does not have to be long to convey something beautiful such as love
Have a beautiful afternoon
Good afternoon my friend! I'm so glad you enjoyed it. Have a wonderful rest of the day!
Just came by to stare at the gif.
😂 Pretty hypnotic, isn’t it?
You always know how to use sweet and eloquent words in your poetry, I like that. Poetry is a way to express ourselves, to transmit our thoughts and emotions through a few lines.
Thank you my friend! So glad you enjoyed these lines!
I believe the words of poetry is magic because it speaks to us extraordinary that satisfies mood which is really awesome.
Very nice. Short and simple, but exceptionally effective! On a side note, I was supposed to go to a softball tournament in Whitehall this past weekend. They ended up moving it to Lancaster because the fields were flooded. Got to see my oldest niece graduate in the Schott. It was a pretty awesome weekend in your hometown! :)
Thank you! It’s a fun challenge to write something condensed like this. Lancaster was probably a better place to have it. The weather has been crazy in the area these past few weeks. So awesome that you got to be there for your niece’s graduation! I’ll be heading down after I get the new car. It should only be a few more weeks now unless the delivery date moves again. Hope you and Mrs. Bozz are well!
Doing pretty good thanks! Students are finishing their last day today, so things should quiet down a bit and we should be able to ramp up camping season soon!
Glad to hear it! Ah, summertime. It'd be great to get some camping in this year.
Beautiful thoughts tied up so neatly. Short does not equal easy, quite the opposite in fact!
Thanks Denise! The condensed ones are a nice challenge!
I find them more difficult! I hope all is going well with you!
Powerful lines of poetry you have here. Definitely love is always a magic that cannot be measured
