Vellichor

Angels were the envy of me,
They roved the lands, I pined to see.
With echoes of enigma,
The yonder lands.
Seraphic, sequestered,
Elusive to human hands .

One day a vellichor tickled my senses,
And then did I discern;
The ecstasy that I yearn,
Lies not beyond the horizon to look,
It masquerades in the garb of a book.

  2. I’m reading this poem by recommendation of a friend, and I’m ever so grateful that they lead me here. I love the sweetness and ethereal undertone of this poem, it reminds me of cosy nights in a firelit room with a book, while you’re thoughts wander off hand in hand with a character from there. I think you’ve captured the magic and passion of reading wonderfully. Great job!

  7. I really like the way publisher has expressed so much emotions in few verses. This besides being an equisite work imparts thoughtfulness in a soul. So inspired by the work. Amazing…
