The Poem and a Poet's Worth

The Poem and A Poet’s Worth In senior years I sought to ply my thoughts And render dreams into a flange of words To strengthen all the senses in my brain Creating rhythms beating out a chord Of many forms into a kin of one That manifests your feelings in a Poem A muse of words to stimulate your soul Where syllables will dance where you direct And prose is driven to a wide domain Imagining the breadth of its refrain A Poet's Worth Contest June 1, 2015 FJ Thomas
