Poetry

Poetry stills me

When my mind is 

busy with daytime things


Poetry fills me

When my mind is 

vacant at days end


Poetry hears me

When I write 

words with meaning


Poetry moves me, 

When I want to progress

with rhythm


Poetry touches me

When I want to 

feel beauty


Poetry sees me

As a raindrop

sees a flower.


“Poetry is an echo, asking a shadow to dance.”

~ Carl Sandburg
