An Intriguing Mind

Written about a good friend of mine who writes beautiful poetry. Read his work at http://merelypoetry.blogspot.com/ if you wish.

He’s a brilliant mind, a beautiful soul

Though he is not perfect, not even a little.

Drawn out explanations and pithy phrases

Make him come up with a word that amazes.

Exponential growth in knowledge and wisdom

He looks you in the eye when you enter his kingdom

Of learning and inquiring to find all the answers

To questions as simple as ‘are we humans or dancers?’

Brilliant rhyme and exquisite dialect

Frame hours of discourse to stimulate anyone’s intellect.

Music with rhythm and words full of passion

Inspire color and vivacity in places of sombre ashen.

Respectful and caring but also quite daring,

He’ll give you a laugh to keep you from despairing.

He’s a brilliant mind with beautiful intellect,

And I know of no soul who would object.
