Monday poetry to excite the heart and soul. Today’s poem “Identity”, carries a resonance like a violin.

*

 Identity

*

There’s a golden thread

sewn into the fabric

of our existence.  It is electrified.

It carries a resonance

like a violin.  It vibrates

at the speed of life.

*

The artist hears it.

It is the rhythm and rhyme

in his lyrics.  It puts the verve

of living color into the brush

of the painter.  It makes the dancer

leap and the sculptor sculpt.

*

We sing.  We imagine,

we create.  We bring

the beauty and harmony

of love, affection and family.

We know, not think.

We help, not preach.

We nurture destiny

the best that we can.
