Sonnet of A Man Shellie Sheehan

Poems can speak if only one will lend an ear! Hear this now, O foolish people, Without understanding, Who have eyes and see not, And who have ears and hear not: Words shared in a most ancient text that if taken to heart will teach all who wish to receive a truth that poetry is an informed way of heightening your understanding and appreciation for the power of the word becoming flesh in your life like that of the ancient text we call Psalms that have given great comfort in the most difficult of times we all must face. A living word touches your spirit as it alters your mind and heart like the creation of time that ticks away leading each of us to eternity's doorway that we will never see till we meet the unseen on that final day. Poems are meant to be read aloud and slowly in a pleasant, relaxed tone of voice as your spirit determines points of pause that do speak to your soul to meditate upon the living word that breathes life into the depth of who you are. The most exciting part of your journey into "Sonnet Of A Man" is the secret treasure you must find verse by verse searching for the lessons about life, the nature of humans, and even the deepest secrets about the author and that of yourself. Poems can mirror your life through written by another uncovering the deepest of emotions giving hope and a reason to carry on for the benefit of your fellow kind. My rhymes and lyrics are about life; my life and your life with a mix of darkness and an essence of light that living does gift us within hope and love of a man touched by God. Mysteries do unfold when the heart of a human becomes one with the Maker entering into a paradise that few can find as most simply wander a desert of life looking for an oasis only to see a mirage that disappoints time and time again.
