The Poetry of Isolation

"Poets Forum for Monthly Contest" - June 2023

The poetry of isolation dampens
the eagerness of sharing.
It hides the talents within your heart;
no one can see your projected wisdom
Of what your eyes can plainly see.

The poetry of isolation penetrates
the light that would project the
the liveliness that brings the essence
of truth into being. It would hinder
the prospects of genuine creativeness.

The poetry of isolation can provide the
time needed for excellent stories for
People to read. It's when the intelligence
of the mind proceeds out to a book.
