BEHIND CLOSED DOORS

My exclusive moment is divine,
There all alone I was immersed,
Drenched with treasure of light,
For quietude is my supreme life.

The power to live in great thought,
Is ignited through an enablement
Of peace; and the serenity of mind,
Gives the dominion of eternal Bliss!

To write demands a connectivity,
And with a coherence of ideas,
Your mental prowess develops,
Into torrent of emotional power!

Creativity is a magic of thoughts,
If gradually and slightly imbued,
You'll spin across your horizon,
'cause you're the element of time.

Poet's life is like a woman in travail,
It consists of the labor of their time,
His solemn moment of effort is to:
Explode into rhyme or unrhyme lines.

Solititude...

I think that the mesage here, is that one needs a certain amount of
time to be alone; to construct the lines that become poetry.
I think that you got that message across. You are learnign well, you use English
with much better undestanding than when you first began here.

Only a couple mistakes with tenses.

1] There all alone I [was] immersed

2] prowess [develops]

3] emotion[al] power

This theme seems to be a new constant with you, I'm thinking that you are not finding
enough peace and quiet these days?

I wish you well in your quest for solitude. ~ Geezer.

Definitely

I understand this through and through. Sometimes we just have to find so quiet space to “hear ourselves think”

Perfectly stated,
