Drawn in three stanzas

Posted Feb 6, 2010 · 13 lines

Drawn in three stanzas

My dialogue
Your intellect
Both intertwined
Demand much respect

Subtle complexities
Written on your mind
With each and every stanza
I draw your interest each and every time

Interested for more and more
Having to follow a myriad of words
Thirsty for my flow, just like water
As a fish stranded ashore

"Journey in Hand " by @Seren
"It's amazing how you tell how you can take a reader on a journey, just by using your pen. This to me is the essence of a poet. One able to tell a story or take a journey by the stroke of a pen and pad. Good job!"
