Paul Arthur Bell

Andy first discovered his artistic and writing talents in high school. He was attracted to poetry like he was attracted to his first girlfriend. He attended Rocky Mountain College in Billings, Montana to pursue art and a new experience. Currently, he has found his passion in writing poetry, abstract art in acrylics and he hopes to compete in his first triathlon soon. Andy’s poetry is inspirational and it motivates him and others to achieve and discover their talents. Writing sustains his passion for life and he hopes to inspire a new generation of young writers. Andy draws inspiration from his art which reflects the intersection between music and his perceptions of what it takes to unite the world. The mosaic mixture of colors in his art subscribes to the notion that a fabric of colors can be weaved to create a unified world.

THESE POEMS CONCERN HEARTFELT EMOTION OF THOSE WHO VALUE LOVE AND THE MEANING BEHIND THAT VALUE. THE WORDS ARE TIME TESTED AND TRUE

AND OFTEN MAY SURPRISE YOU.

THEY ARE POEMS OF INSIGHT AND A PERSONAL PHILOSOPHY INTO THE EMOTIONAL SEAT AND CENTER

OF THE OFTEN CONFUSING AND COMPLICATED

ARENA OF LOVE.

The Aisle Of Isleters

WHAT MADE LIFE FAIR

DEATH WAS BURIED

IDEAS WERE BORN TO SHARE

TIME WAS NEVER HURRIED

THERE WAS A CITY OF DIAMOND AND WOOD

SKYSCRAPERS TOUCHED THE SKY

AND ACROSS THE WAY A GARDEN STOOD

DOTTED WITH COTTAGES TEN YARDS HIGH

GARDEN TREES OF EVERY KIND OF FRUIT

SURROUNDED CRYSTAL CLEAR RIVERS TO DRINK

AND IN THE DISTANCE ONE COULD SEE MOUNTAINS SHOOT

AT A DISTANT CLOUD THAT MADE ONE THINK

THERE WERE PATHS EVERYWHERE THAT LEAD TO THE CITY

IT ALL LOOKED SO WILD AND WITTY

AND THE GARDEN TRAVELED AN ENDLESS MILE

THAT WAS MARRIED TO GRACE AND STYLE

THERE WERE FORESTS WHERE CREATURES STAYED

BUT NO CURSE UPON THEM TO EAT AND BE EATEN PLAYED

THE GARDENS FOOD SUPPLY WAS EXTENSIVE

NO CREATURE WENT HUNGRY, NOT ONE FELT PENSIVE

EACH BEING POSSESSED AN ETERNAL IDEA

THAT MADE EACH UNIQUE

A COUNCIL OF ETERNAL BEINGS WOULD MEET

A LIVING THOUGHT, MADE TO KEEP

NOW HOW MANY THOUGHTS ARE AN ETERNAL IDEA

WHEN BRED OUT OF LOVE,

AS NUMEROUS AS THE STARS IN THE SKY

AND THE PRODUCT KEEPS ONE FOREVER ALIVE

THE ONLY TRUE ENEMY OF ALL LIFE

IS THAT THINKING SHOULD QUIETLY DIE

THE ONLY TRUE WAR THAT IS FED

IS THAT ALL IDEAS SHOULD BE BURIED DEAD

THE AISLE OF ISLETERS NEW SUCH THINGS TO CARE

THE FRUIT OF AN IDEA FOR ITS ECONOMY

WAS A FOREVER NEWNESS, FELT IN THE AIR

WITH A PRODUCT THAT BROUGHT NEW HEAVENLY FARE

ETERNITY IS NOT COUNTED BY TIME

THAT IS LEFT TO THOSE WHO MEASURE CONFLICT

AS OLD AS ANY IDEA, WAS THE COMMUNITY OF MIND

THE SAME WAY TO BE, ALWAYS FOUND A NEW WAY TO SEE

TRUTH IS WITHIN, THE EYES ALWAYS LOOK OUTWARD

WAS THE ETERNAL IDEA OF LIATA UN ADORA DE BUSCHE

A PRINCESS OF HER WORLD, SHE LISTENED TO WHAT SHE HEARD

AND NEVER HEARD THE SAME THING TWICE UNDER THE SUN’S RAY

HER WORLD MADE HER FEEL FAMILIAR TO HERSELF

YET ALWAYS NEW, THE PERFECT PITCH OF A MUSICAL NOTE

SHE COMPOSED WORDS WITH MUSIC SHE WROTE

AND PERFORMED TO AN AUDIENCE IN HER EVERYDAY COAT

AN ENTIRE CIVILIZATION ALIVE

EACH ETERNAL BEING CREATING PRODUCT FROM HIS MIND

AND EVERYWHERE ONE WENT, ONE BELONGED

TO SHARE ONE’S PRODUCT, FOR JUST THAT MOMENT LONG

THE SUN OF INTELLIGENT DESIGN SHINED ON ALL

AS LIATA LISTENED TO A COUPLE WHO WISHED TO CONCEIVE

INTEREST POURED OUT IN THE COMMUNITY HALL

WHERE EVERYONE SUGGESTED HOW THIS CHILD WOULD BELONG

A BOOK WAS MADE OF THINGS THE CHILD WOULD DO

TO HELP HIM FIND HIS OWN PERSONAL TRUTH

HE WOULD NEVER BECOME LOST, IN HIS WORLD

MANY WOULD KNOW HIS EMOTIONAL MURAL

LIA LOOKED AT THE COUPLE AND THEIR BOOK

THE CHILD WAS BORN, WITHOUT A HOOK

NO ONE INTERVENED, THEY HAD PLAYED THEIR PART

THE FAMILY WAS LEFT WITH THE CHILD’S BOOK AND THEIR HEART

LIA MET ETERNIA IN THE GARDEN OF LOVE

FUNNY, HOW THE QUIET WAS JUST ENOUGH

AND THE CONVERSATION PERFECT STUFF

TWO ETERNAL IDEAS TOUCHED INTO ONE

SHE THREW THE FIRST AVACADO AT HIS BACK

HE GRABBED IT AND CHASED HER AS SHE LAUGHED

THEY TRAVELED A DOZEN FOOT MILES AND NEVER TOOK UP SLACK

SHE SWAM ACROSS THE RIVER, WITHOUT LOSING TRACK

SHE TURNED TO SEE HOW FAR BEHIND

BUT HE WAS ACROSS BEFORE SHE KNEW

SHE FELT SOMETHING HIT HER ASS

HE GRABBED AND KISSED HER, AND SAID I LOVE YOU

SHE GAVE HIM A POEM FROM HER HEART

HE RESPONDED WITH A SONG, THAT WAS JUST THE START

THEY CLIMBED A TREE AND HELD HANDS

AND FELT THE WIND’S BREEZE TURN ON LIKE A FAN

AT NIGHTFALL THEY KISSED THOSE IN REPOSE

AND WENT
