Thoughts, Opinions?

***Ghosts***

The spirits trapped within do forever yearn,

for their sweet solstice in eternity.

They buckle and turn in the restlessness of our concerns,

waiting for their moment to once again fly free.

The spirits wanting within, do forever need,

our comforts and fulfillment of joy from a sublime peace.

They whither in the wake of their fruitless seeds,

waiting for their banquet in our solum release.

The spirits both of mystic realm, do forever play a part,

as all the energies flow from and to.

They swirl and dance within each beating heart,

in life and also in death, ever passing through.

The spirits immortal never die, they only transform,

within a universe bound, energy seeks its host.

They find it and then move on again, such is the norm,

in the end, we each and everyone are all only just ghosts.

    I do like it. Is it your copywrite? It flows really well. I defiantly am left with an emotion.

    I appreciate, in the poem, your effort to touch on the metaphysical. Be careful, when writing poetry however, that you consider the way you are speaking to the audience. For instance, and only you can answer this, is it really necessary to have such a structured rhyme scheme in your poem? If you feel that it is, then it is necessary, but if you feel that you forced your poem into the rhyme scheme and into the meter we see it in, then you have damaged the integrity of the poem itself. What is poetry for but to capture the purest essence of human emotion in word form and communicate that emotion to another human being? I like your poem, I really do, and I do not say any of this in reference to this poem specifically, but it is simply something that I would encourage you to keep in mind as you write poetry. But, for sure, it is a very enjoyable poem to read and experience; thanks for sharing it.
