Lyrical Somerville – May 2

On May 2, 2012, in Latest News, by The Somerville Times

Well Poetry Month has just passed, so here is a post poetry month poem by Jennifer Matthews. Matthews is an accomplished singer/songwriter, and also a fine poet and writer. Find out more about this gal at http:/www./jennifermatthews.com.

The Poetry
The poetry in you is in me,
The poetry…
In me the poetry is in you
In you, the poetry…
Forgiveness is in forsaking for what she came…
Poetry… there is a sky of you in poetry
Words, painting sonnets painting words
Sculpt me, carve me, shape me, fire me
Bronze me…
Stand me in the prophet of your laughter…
See me… my years fertilize your garden
Spin me… my words sparkle on the flipside
Write me, as I write you
I flower – touch me
I am warmly receiving the poetry in you…
The  poetry.

–  Jennifer Matthews
