O is for: OUT OF THE SHADOWS OF KNOWLEDGE


Out of the shadows of knowledge, you will find a humble poet searching for a female companion among his precious work.

Using just simple words, he paints an exquisite picture of a beautiful woman whom he often sees among the unwritten psalms he can only pen in imaginative dreams.

The charm and grace she exudes leaves him breathless every time he creates a new stanza about this ethereal beauty he longs to touch.

How he wishes he could delay the hands of prophecy from embracing the earth…just long enough for him to feel the warmth of her breath upon the blank pages thirsting for her kisses.

He is caught by an enchantment more beautiful than the reality life has bestowed upon his lonesome heart.

Today, woven by the length of her tresses, his heart remains entwined with this gorgeous woman he has finally found through his love poems written out of the shadows of knowledge.

  20. What an outstanding post Andy.

    Barbara's work harmonizes perfectly with your lovely word crafting.

    I'm curious.

    Are you grocery lists poetic?

    I think they would be.

    "A fragrant bouquet of carrots!

    The crunchy delight of iceberg lettuce!"

    You have the most lovely way with words!

    Thank you for sharing them with us.

    A+
