Notes About The Poem

A Liberating Gift

Once in a blue moon, 
words do fail me
But my pen never does. 
It's my silent voice.

A pen never betrays
a poet!
In mine, I'll always 
put all my love and trust

The mighty pen, 
always eager to bruise paper
Ink flowing freely 
like the blood in my veins

To be able to wondrously 
weave a tapestry of emotions 
and images to touch, 
to move, to captivate...

with the mere stroke of...
our faithful pen is a treat 
to behold. Poets have a gift; 
a liberating gift!
