Word is darkness
Figures devouring each other
Love delights in break up
And becomes a poem
Poem is light
Images lapping up images
Thoughts delight in birth
And becomes a word
Posted for Carrie’s picture prompt @ The Sunday Muse #175
“Sound is sea: pattern lapping pattern… Matter delights in music, and became Bach,” the poet Ronald Johnson wrote as he contemplated matter, music and the mind. The given picture prompt and Ronald Johnson’s words triggered my poem today.

Beautiful writing Sumana! Yes many break ups give birth to beautiful poetry!

So beautiful!
Breakups are generally sad but there are beautiful and tender memories that remain and which we savor. You said it so well, Sumana, put them to poetry as keepsakes, hidden or on display.
