“Solitary Dreamer” by Gordon Meggison
prose is a conversation
whereas poetry is prayer
tongue-tied masses left
mute in the cold
From my book Pieces of Wine

Sometimes everything has to be enscribed across the heavens so you can find the one line already written inside you. Sometimes it takes a great sky to find that small, bright, and indescribable wedge of freedom in your own heart. David Whyte

I like it. Though I a little unclear whether the âtongue-tied massesâ are the praying poets or those left out of the conversations AND also without the means to pray.
And Iâm not sure I need to know. That is an ambiguity I might be able to live with.

Awesome. Wish my poetry was like a prayer. Close as I have at times is that I have to pray to find words. đ

I don’t fully agree with you here, Paul. I think while poetry can be prayer, it can also be much more: an extension of ones self not just to God or for meditation but as seed for thought in others, as a beginning of a conversation, even as the conversation itself. That being said, I love your use of alliteration and narrative structure. I hope that my poetry can one day inspire the emotions that yours do in me.
