Symbolism

Picture
is the art of  using an object or word to represent an abstract idea--it often relies on connotation and influences the mood of the piece. Look for it here:

Humming-bird by D.H. Lawrence
​
Hummingbirds by S.M.(M).L.

You flit, float, flutter,
minuscule in your species,
and we lure you in,
not to capture, but to engage.
We want your iridescence,
your zooming presence even
if we can't hold it. 
Engage in the ethereal. 
Imagine what it must be to 
be a speck of beauty 
and nothing more, a desire
no one tries to contain.
We reach out to you but
never try to grasp
the impossibility of your
existence in a world 
of dangers and destruction.
You manage to weave 
wonder, and we just watch
turn back into ourselves 
and wish to still our own
furiously beating hearts 
against the madness and
mayhem, dart past delirium 
and exist by sipping nectar
from the vividness of life.

    There's a poet in my soul; she's always been there, but is often neglected.  I'm letting her out here.  I hope you will too.  Here's some unsolicited advice:  When your poet speaks to you, just let it out, there's something there, I promise you.  Here you'll find ideas about how to hone your craft as I practice mine and lead you to some of my favorite published poems and poets.
