A Love Poem to My Craft (Poetry)
A Love Poem to My Craft
By Asche Keegan
Regale me with tales of the midnight wanderers,
Lost in the depths of a story never told.
Enchant me with magics of the utmost ponderers,
Burdened with journeys and mysteries of old.
Teach me to lose myself in what I write,
To catch a melting heart mid-frozen-beat.
Allow me to lead you through the night—
My voice a guide that gives you sight—
Leave me writing these words left on repeat,
I beg, ignore me not my lover’s plight.
Catch me the stars in early spring,
Or bring down rain and lightning blasts.
Or do not—don’t teach or bring,
It’d matter naught; we’ve got what lasts.

A beautiful poem, and I love how you capture hints of your previous poems in this, like glints through a frosted window.
ReplyDeleteThank you!! :D (I love that piece of imagery--you should use it in a poem of your own! :D)
Delete"Teach me to lose myself in what I write,"
ReplyDeleteNever before have I related so much to a poem's line
Also, guessing game time, who am I? :D
Hint in the form of a Riddle: The last three letters are all you need, much to your surprise they are not merely insignificant
Just gonna say if you don't get this right, I will be sorely disappointed. I have included four or five major clues. MAJOR clues
ANT!!!! HIIII!!!!! LONG TIME NO SEEEE!!!! Nice name; what prompted you to come by this one?
Delete(If you're not Ant, I deeply apologize to you, said stranger O.O)
Lol It is I, the Ant
DeleteThis name is just random tbh. There is no reason xD What's up?
I knew it instantly and almost died laughing - loved the clues!
DeleteEverything, particularly the sky! :D
Okay, okay, I'll stop - I'm double majoring with a minor, have a job, in seven and a half organizations...you know, the usual, nothing much. :P XDD
Lolol I'm glad you did
DeleteHuh. Good point
So in other words you're making sure you barely have enough time to breathe each day -thumbs up-
On the contrary, I have NO time to breathe, not barely enough! :D :D :D I'm almost dead!
