A Secret Place

Each poet has a secret place within, a peaceful refuge of silence, away from all of life, isolated from this world, to write, to be lost. Imagine a house, beside the deep blue sea, with waves crashing on rocks, and then, take up your pen and write . . . ___________________________ October 3, 2016 Poetry/Imagism/A Secret Place Copyright Protected, ID 16-1213-730-0 All Rights Reserved.
