Woven Light

On my journey to learn how to compose an honest pure Poem. To start, I set about composing from imagination until it reached a completed phase. I learned that one will over dress a work. It never fully becomes a good poem. One must strip it of all decorative words. These words are devoid of meaning. Then it becomes what can be a good Poem. This was the case in composing this Poem.

I had it decorated into something I felt was good. I reread it in the fresh light of another day. At that moment, I realized I had worked my way down a path I needed to avoid. I invite you to read this poem in its finished form. Decide how good it is as an actual Love Poem.

On the path of composing a poem, keep things a little more simple. Leave words that have no meaning in the poem safe at home, as it were. Thus I will say little else except, please enjoy this read.

Woven Light





Lingering lost where restless thoughts would stray,
Love’s quiet light began to guide my way.
From broken words and worlds I could not name,
You stirred in me a slow, enduring flame.



In fields where fierce and fleeting passions play,
I found no reason left to turn away.
The moment that our eyes refused to stray,
Something within me quietly gave way.



The whisper of the dawn begins to rise,
Soft choral hues awaken in the skies.
By grace unseen, or paths we could not trace,
I came to rest within your calm embrace.



The moon drifts close, and stars move slow and wide,
A silent rhythm pulling with the tide.
Your heartbeat steadies mine, and in its flow,
Two separate lives find one true course to go.



As morning breaks and light unseals the sky,
There’s no more need for doubt or question why.
Of all that is, and all that came before,
Your life is woven deep within my core.

Thank you for coming with me on my little journey, that is composing or writing poetry. Life is a journey we all walk on. My journey in creating poetry is a journey of its own. Which I still learn much on as I write.

At times I experiment on techniques or ways to improve my poetry. Getting feedback is always most welcome for efforts like these.

When I write poetry, some readers will 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. I correct the moment I discover such mistakes.

    1. Very True Billy, I’ve been doing a study on the structure of POetry, especially around the model I am inclined to use. Therefore I have discovered that we can over dress some stanzas to make it look good and yet lose much of what One wanted to say as a result. So keeping it simple to start with is my role for now I thinks.. Also it gives a whole lot to think about in working on a poem (which I love doing anyways. LoL )

    1. Thank you Chuck, Sometimes it becomes a lesson learned by experience and looking back on it in the end . That was before a re-edit to strip back and lose what was unsuitable.. I was very happy with this version at the end..
