"Hearts connecting each to each / Saying what cannot be said / Reaching what is out of reach"

I Believe in Poetry I believe in poetry Thought distilled and crystallized As artform and therapy By which dreams are realized Spoken to reality Things which one could never say By poetry are spoken Here the hopeless find a way Out of reach to common speech To hope where hope is broken Poetry repairs the breach Whether written whether read Hearts connecting each to each Saying what cannot be said Reaching what is out of reach Stylized speech by which we deal With the world we thus create With loved hated feared and real People things and celebrate Mourn exult cajole debate Opening closed hearts to feel Opening blind eyes to see Opening deaf ears to hear Opening both you and me There and here and far and near I believe in poetry +Steven Curtis Lance Copyright MMV
