Will O' The Wisp


Will o' the wisp
Wafting words of intrigue
Warm joy to ears and eyes
The meaning a mystery
In comfortable anonymity

Wisp a handful of hay or
Straw dry grass held in hand
Poets extol it as hair
A strand curl tuft tress
Going awry in the wind

In use accepted as judge
Decision maker
The last word
Embraced in a whispered
Will... of the wisp


2007 F William Broome
