MERSMERY, POETRY, MYSTERY (poetry)

... by Poetic Tee "Here, take a sip"

This pic in itself's a piece of poetry
Like the branches of an olive tree
Spreading its light in abandon glee
Look at it, casually and care-free
A soul pouch you'll definitely see
But, what's within is pure mystery

A close study reveals just a face
Goggled shades staring into space
Only facing the face is another face
An illusionary aura on the still surface
Sunlight displaying pure amazing grace
One wonders, "Who puts this in place?"


Many see nothing, but a beautiful rainbow
Others upon discovery scream "O Wow!"
Some minds lacking inner eye, ask "How?"
Until shown what to see by saying "Now, ..."
A smile of recognition and they take a bow
It's really real, so no need to shout "Holy cow!"

But all that mersmery's nothing
When compared with the unique thing
That's often found in fine artistic writing
Appearing on their own, strangely mystifying
Again and again and again, the mind challenging
Observe carefully, a recurring decimal astonishing

One can see it if he or she is able to read
Color-blind, appearing to all who take heed
Preferably to minds not in bondage, but freed
For even with education, understanding is the need
So be not surprised if some soils sprout out not the seed
Souls hunger, self discovers, but pride denies many the feed.
