Notes About The Poem

Listen to poem:

Channelling

The first 'real' poem I wrote
shook me to the core.
I say I wrote it but really
I think I was channelling it.

I was a fifteen year-old girl
and I wrote a poem about a soldier.
I penned it in quatrains and in rhyme;
it almost had an Irish accent.

To this day I swear there was something
definitely surreal about Dreams' Battles

Why only then ~ even now, the words that come to us are clearly by resonance. To quote a line I employ often, ‘wherefrom came that exalted thought, that inspirations with it brought’?
