No one else, but a poet...can bring colors to scenes...with verses, in crass or subtle tones......gather words together in lines, uncertain in their ebbing and flowing... the results create surprise in many hues that could make one cry, grimace......frown......or smile readers are led to far, or near destinations...to the cool, sweet air and peaceful atmosphere of paradise, or, to unlit corners...uncharted waters, or deep into an abyss...or, a black hole, an unknown corner, where moribund souls are biding their time, maybe, they could now define by themselves, purgatory and hell, understand those sunken souls who have lost all...except their arms, and begging eyes... then, through appropriate words, a poet paints a laborious path, or a stairway...so an enlightened reader may climb back to safe, calm waters... a poet makes the mind see a human heart, beating in many rhythms...throbbing, .......aflame with longing and desire, bursting from ecstatic, sublime moments, then, later on, shift to grayish thoughts that cut deep....tormenting...crashing, ............gnashing the heart... a poet paints a soul walking on cloud nine, later, to dip feet in celebrative pools. sometimes, a poet would rather not, yet, an inner force prevails, thereby paints a drooping soul...dying, in total surrender, ready to fall..............but, again, with a barrel of lively-colored words, a poet takes this despondent soul to berth, with soothing verses, bring it to a rebirth... every human being is worth an effort ..............even those that have fallen .........................are worth savin' ..... a poet's palette is uniquely enriched with colorful experiences, a poet paints life in its truest colors, ..........could be dark...or bright .....nothing more......nothing less...
