A Brook of Words

Postby denysruak » Sun Mar 15, 2015 2:40 pm

A Brook of Words

Have you ever listened to the sounds
of words that tumble along a page
as they flow from line to line
and your thoughts engage?

This brook of words that flows
along its course of revealing
feeds the avenues of your mind
and stirs an innermost feeling.

So heed the tumbling whispers
and understand their themes
for this flowing brook of words
is really a river of dreams.

An engaging way to use interesting metaphor Denys - - I love the comparison you make of poetic words with flowing water. A beautiful read.

Brook as a metaphor is a wonderful concept and I love how you have used the word 'tumbling' from 'words' 'heeding whispers' to reach a river of dreams Denys.

Yes, Denys...you nailed it, my friend. Now you know why I am such an avid reader, sir. You have captured the true essence of feeling found by those who love to read with a gusto. A truly excellent write this is, Denys...and I will brook no argument to the contrary, you hear? :-D
