Hylas and the Nymphs, by John William Waterhouse
Robert L. Martin

The Wordist

He pulls words out of the open skies
As fires sprinkle their sightly plumes
Bravery is a soft romantic escapade
Riding stallions through cosmic rooms
 
The skies, his fun-filled playground
His feet suspended by nothing at all
Give rise to his spirit, his comrade in arms
His manuscript, his animated toy to scrawl
 
When life is a narrow prison for the soul
Words are spoken with a girded reverence
The wordist shakes them way out of his mind
His sanity in question, a walk upon the fence
He is a poet, a proud rebel of the audacious kind

Love this one. There are times when no words can express your feelings - sad or happy. Accept is all you do, smile with a heavy heart or a joyous one. Like the line...life is a narrow prison for the soul. Thanks Robert.
