Ready to take a flight to a star!
Just grab a pen and travel far.

When ink meets a paper.
Somehow gives birth to a Wonder.

Takes you off the ground.
Then you take a look around.

It's the Poetry world amazement.
Where emotions rule over the placement.

Made Actions and Dialogues two worlds apart.
It is the Lyrics of someone's Heart.

Sometimes it's Tragic.
Sometimes it's Magic.

Random but strong words come out.
Smoothly written with No Doubt.

Free to use Creativity.
With a simple word Composition activity.
And a remarkable Rhyme intensity.
In some way makes a fabulous Harmony.

Feels like flying away to Space.
Where everything is Beautiful in that place.

When ink draws the final full stop on a paper.
Saying Goodbye to the wonderful world all over.

Putting you roughly back on the ground.
Then you take a look around.

It's Reality world stop.
Where actions are under the spot.

Traveling through space where time stops and nothing alse matters more than my words and my feelings. Words are the strongest weapon that everybody ownes. They have the power to turn a life around.

First of all, thank you so much for the comment. I so enjoyed and appreciated your opinion ^_^ Concerning your question...Well, it was creative in some way but also I wanted to force on some words which really have a strong connection with the topic "Poetry" (like: Space, Creativity, Harmony, Tragic and Magic...) Although I know that each word has its own weight on a conscience, my only goal was to make it heavier and as a result, it will leave a deeper impact on the reader. I hope it makes sense to you and most of all I truly hope you felt and related to my words. Thanks again a lot for the support, it meant so much to me ^_^

This poem is a trip in itself! And a vivid one at that. That's my positive comment. I genuinely enjoyed this piece, the rhyme scheme was the hook for me. Also, I've looked at some if your other work. You yourself have addressed that some of your poems contain grammatical and typographical errors. And, although the reader can most times appreciate a work in spite of typos, I find they can be distracting and take me away from the work. But because this one held a minimal amount, I was able to enjoy it that much more. This is my favorite poem of yours, so far. I've tried writing about writing poems before, and I think you did it quite well in this poem. I have one question, though. Was it a creative decision of yours to capitalize seemingly random words, or was there a pattern in that?

Thanks I so appreciate that ^_^ But mostly I like it when people do agree with what I share in my poems which I know that pretty much all of the members in Teenink do agree with the fact that writing is a wonderful way to reach people's hearts and make a change in some way...I don't know if I'm making sense here but Thanks anyway for the support :D

It's my pleasure RyanM. And yes actually that's what I was hoping for when I wrote this poem "Show people why words have such a huge effect on the world. They have the power to turn a life around" Thanks again for the feedback ^_^
