There is something satisfying in finding
the right phrase
The pellucid image that, in three words,
sees to the heart.
Then there is the sensual gratification
of forming the words
Seeing the thing grow on the paper
written in your own hand.
b.
Image, thought, meaning,
the poem grows from what seed
none knows. Image, thought
meaning, experience distilled
the muse give sight, order, form -
the poet life and words and sound
c.
A poet does not write -
only sees.
A poet sees the Matter within
the matter.
A poet confronts experience
and sees
beyond the trees to the wood
beyond the wood to the trees
see feel touch.....write!!
Poetry.....or fantasy!!
