It Happened

Here in my imagination,

There are thoughts waiting

To be born, to see the light

Of day and know existence.

 

So many times I passed them by,

Thinking I had better things to do.

Then one day it happened,

I put all of them in a poetry book.

 

It shook the timbers of my mind

To free them for what their worth.

Now I treasure my little book

And all the poems that it took.

A charming poem about poems and poetry. Yes, it is a miracle how they all come together. No one can take that away from you. It's yours (and the rest of us who have read some of them). John
