Creationism II: Dare to!

To create. To be is to do.

By Matt B.Published about a year ago 1 min read

HAIKU.

An inspiration

For the poem comes just in

The poem itself!

*

EXTENT

The inspiration for the poem

Is the poem itself!

Just hearing is being deaf

Wandering, your mind

Dances a thought

But if you listen and then you find

What it gently brought

With such a sound

(You find,

In the redesigned around)

In what you created

As clear as a cloud

You find your smile,

And your only wealth:

Yourself.

*

But you’ll say “How?”

“I see a blank space,

A blurry white snow

Before me, there’s a face,

Whom is it, though?

Are they someone I know?

Is it a friend or a foe?”

But in the heat and the flurry

You shouldn’t be worried

Take truly the time to think

Don’t be in a hurry

Take the rag from the brink

Wipe out the steam

Take a look at the mirror

With a smile and a blush, you shall blink.

And the poem is nearer!

*****

Hope you enjoyed it! This poem talks about how wandering on an empty sheet is like slowly wiping out the steam from a mirror.

Here is the first part, which is only a haiku that symbolizes the "wandering of the mind", but instead of it being on an empty sheet, it's in an empty room.
