My Soul (Sonnet 2018)

By Lawrence Mathebula •
A poet, but a singer
Of the dream,
A writer, lyricist;
A passionate artist
Of my themes
From the heart,
Him quiet like a nun.
The beat, I sing
Is conventional art
Of the years
Oncoming, far and near.
A poet, but in love
A weaver, with the Lyre
He charges to the air!
