The poesy here is beautiful. 

Alliteration, rhyme, analogy to mention a few. 

It sounds poetic. 

It espouses the magic of poetry 

and speaks of the many ways that the author has created written poetry.  

The way these are described is wonderful. 

I love the descriptions. 

>From angel  feathers 

to the coarse  beigepaper . 

Cudos.

 

A poets Credo

 

I believe

in the reading and writing,

the creativity of poetry.

I believe in

the uplifting quality , wonder,tension, tenderness,

translucency, and tranquility

of the mirror of poetry.

 

I believe 

in the angel wings of muses

that gently brush the poet.

I believe I have written poetry

with a plume

which was once an angel’s feather.

 

when I could no longer write withthe plume,

I used the bold-nibbed fountain penthat bled into

the porous beige paper that wrappedaround the bundles of 

The Daily Clintonian.

 

When angel feathers and fountainpens

had to be put aside,

I turned to poetry 

penned with a bold felt-tippedmarker

and bold-line paper.

 

For a brief while, 

white letters on a very large anddark screen

of a closed-circuit television(CCTV)

magnified my poetic world for me.

 

As my world was draped

with more and more curtains of gray,

a talking computer

came my way on an angel’s wing

so that still I could write

plenty of poetry.

 

Alas, the dancing feet of angels

stepped on my blank pages

and embossed the magical dots of braille

so that I could read aloud forothers to hear

the poetry—

my poetry—

in which my heart 

believes.
