		I think it's lovely, except for that final line.

Mere words cannot convey a pea
or pod of what it is we share,
although I try, with verbal charm.
My speech is eloquent and yet;
the showing of this soul whose search
has found a place to rest in love
is more-- A thorn of sharpness borne shouldn't 'A' be lowercase?
by stem enhancing bud and bloom.
with boulders in my mouth i try, 'with' should be capitalized.
but can't express a verbal ounce
of ink, I'm not a poet fair.
To capture feelings with a fire!
A task I fear beyond my means.
I beg of you, cast eye to eye
and in the depth of our delight
see words not scribed or spoken-- I keep reading this as 'see not words scribed or spoken'
In their absence may thoughts be shown I am not fond of this line. Perhaps something along the lines of 'in their absence whisper gentle actions?
Unspoken Words.
Words--
mere words cannot, I plainly see
explain to me what we both share
though I try, with verbal charm
my words to you, would not permit
the showing, of a soul whose search
has found a place to rest in love
a thorn of sharpness here to stay
sharpness that enhances life
how do I mention all the things
written by poets through the age
and capture feelings with a fire?
a task I fear beyond my means
I beg of you, cast eye to eye
and in the depth of soul’s delight
see words not scribed or spoken
just know their silent meaning
this is another early poem and a personal one but don't worry. just treat it as any other poem.
PS. If you can, try your hand at giving some of the others a bit of feedback. If you already have, thanks, can you do some more?
