Poetry

Oh how can it be
this gift of one’s inner soul...
poor poet with such wealth.

I really like the thoughts you have here, Harry...Poor yet rich with the inner soul, I think I'd really like that. Really liked this very succinct yet thought-provoking. Enjoy your week!

That has been a problem throughout history..There are many but only a few get recognized..I had an uncle who wrote and the preacher at the funeral read one of his poems..No one knew that he wrote..That was on my father's side and on my mother's side her sister wrote and one was read at her funeral..Enjoyed reading your truth filled work..Sara
