At Our Next Poetry Reading

Not sure if I know where or when
What realm of reality we are in
Time of day or for that matter year
That to us it will start to appear.

We liked and learned so much from it
How to write poems, humor and wit
Much honor, humility and humbleness
And hoping loveliness I did not miss.

My mind and body all of it did digest
Then in poem was put to complete test
Determining what subject we should use
Needing need pleasant of perfect excuse.

After thinking about it every which way
We came up with perfect poem of the day
Wondering what should be the title
That always to a poem is very vital.

Let it be, "God thank You for them all,"
No matter how big, simple or small
Each is to be cunning, cute and clever.
Final one written will be best ever.

What I did was take them to heaven with me
So that God and I together could see
Spiritual food will be poems we are feeding
In heaven at our next poetry reading.

James Thomas Horn, Retired Veteran

Why Tammy. Haven't heard from you before. Feel sorry for Richard though. He and I are addicts of each other's poems. Now let it inspire you to wrote more poems. Jim Horn
