Brilliant Missives

To start with a word -- an object, person, notion, or motion,
something intimate, personal... to develop it, digging deep,
to then expand it, connecting its dots to the far reaches of
the universe... Ah, Poetry! few feelings more rewarding...


     specks in the cosmos
     poets launch brilliant missives
       -- to eternity

You speak the language of poets, my friend, especially like ' connecting its dots to the far reaches of the universe' - yes, I would say poetry is the reward of feeling, wishing you luck in the contest, gw!
