Michelle Smith Poet Rhyme

Notes About The Poem

Hope is the thing with feathers-- continued

"Hope is the thing with feathers—
That perches in my soul—
And sings the tune without the words—
And never stops—at all— "

Prayer is the thing with crosses
That, stationed in the heart,
Brings the Gospel, in few words
A contemplative start

Gary Radice September 4, 2024 at 11:23 PM I've read several of your poems Michelle and am really liking your style. There is so much said in so few lines which, for me, is the sign of a true wordsmith and poet. I really like your take on Emily Dickinson's work here. Cheers - Gary Michelle Smith September 13, 2024 at 9:54 AM Thank you :) that’s my goal. :D I haven’t added one in a while, but I keep thinking I want to think of one…
