Enchanted

Todays Poem has gone through more edit’s and changes than most posts that I have published here on this blog. Even Name Title has been changed and altered many times. On Monday evening I was set to publish, but I had an early start and busy day the following day, thus it was left to today. BUT again it went through another edit, This is how serious I take Composing Poetry and How my work turns out. A little bit of perfection often hinders how quickly my work gets seen by others. Therefore Before I go at this again, I am publishing it now, to avoid even more edits.

About The Poem:

It appears that Most of my poetry gets placed here on blog, therefore it is fitting that this also gets to be seen and read here first also. Todays Poem is yet another Poem that speaks of, This Land that is Ireland. Not the People that live here or those who have come from other parts to do what they do here. BUT the land and country that is Ireland.

It is obvious from reading other Poems relating to Ireland, there is a great sense of Pride in this Country and the answer would be Yes and also great love for this Country also. I wanted to provide what I could say as; “Almost a sense of a Drone footage as it were in verse and only in words”. I am uncertain if this was successful, but it is here for folks to read all the same.

I had toyed with the idea of placing this for publication in a magazine here in Ireland, BUT I have never done this , but yet I find more ease in doing this side of Poetry than the leg work of finding such publication.. It could be classed as a kind of Promo for Irish tourism. Even if I myself dislike the term Tourism which is tainted by greed of a financial market , to take as much from people than it ever was possible.

BUT still it is a come visit this Island Country and enjoy life away from the concrete jungle of City Life. This is where the true beauty can be found in all corners. Thus my desire again to place it to this Poem, But it may never do justice enough to show the true beauty I have found.

Also nothing else could explain this Poem or nothing more could be laid out before you here that would better understand it than what I have placed here.

Having said all of that; Please Enjoy This Poem:

Enchanted



Amongst the rolling hills and vales,
Where the mist-shrouded land exhales.
Again I am drawn to this hall,
The breathtaking landscape, enthral. 


Where meadows, carpeted with wildflowers,
That sway in the breeze, and empowers.
This invite to linger yet appease,
Immersed in nature's enchanting ease. 


The clear streams, that meander through,
Sing a melody, soft and true.
Reflecting the sky's changing hue,
A symphony that my heart, yet knew. 


The ancient ruins, held in time's embrace,
Whispered tales of histories grace.
Their weathered stones, a tribute to the past,
conjures a sense of wonder that last. 


The coastline, where waves crash and roar,
To glimpse nature's raw, untamed score,
Sculpting cliffs with relentless tide,
A creation that fills me with pride. 


In this enchanted land, dreams take flight,
Solace found, where beauty meets my sight. 
Here this love and awe of, creation,
Blend seamlessly in this celebration. 


As I wander this, beautiful Land,
I feel a connection that’s in demand,
For in the embrace of Ireland's beauty,
I find a peace and, forever duty.

ENDING THOUGHTS:

Thank you for following me on my little journey, that is composing or writing poetry. If Life is a journey which we all walk on and my journey in creating Poetry is a journey of it’s own. Which I still learn much on as I write.

At times I experiment on methods or way how I can improve my poetry, therefore getting feedback is always most welcome for such as these.

When I write poetry, some readers may be offended with something within the poetry. I do not write to offend, But such are written for reasons I outline in the posts. Often I miss typos and mistakes when publishing each poem. BUT I correct the moment I discover such mistakes.

But Poetry is a form of art work that I enjoy and thus using it in a manner to touch or inspire the reader.

Thank you for joining me on this journey.

Poetry is a learning curve where I always work to improve. A lot of work goes into editing and reediting and then repeating that process on a number of occasions until I am happy with the result. This is how I operate in creating posts to share here.

Please forgive for any such mistakes and for your understanding this.
