When Words Go Into Hiding

The beauty of mountains and a spellbound poet

A chain of mountains and a poet in ecstasy,
so much to explore, so much to study,
so much to put into words but
the paper is still blank,

I reckon..
my words are in hiding somewhere
between the dense pine trees or the
vibrant floral beds,

maybe, the soft soil soaked them or
the jungle ants carried them away,

I must look for my syllables combing
through the long grass blades with
my fingers,

Only then could I paint the serenity
in front of me with words,

Only then could my paper be content.

Thank you for reading! :)

I write because i’m aware of the power words have. I use mine to tell stories, rant on issues that bother me and turn my life and self into poetry.
