Where Poets Come From
Behind the gossamer curtain
Beneath the azure veil
You’ll find a quiet beauty
In exquisite detail
You’ll hold your breath to gaze upon it
You’ll take in the scents with your eyes
The scene beheld is beyond words
Sweet music touches the skies
Poetry is wild here
Growing hither and thither
There inside this hollowed ground
A single flower withers
The dried petals wisk away
And a tear is shed for its loss
That single drop ingredient
Births a poet from the moss
