I Must Dwell With My Words

I cannot write my poems quick, I must dwell with them for perhaps a day. Ponder them, swirl them in my head, let them sink into my soul, let them dwell, and then like magic the words come spilling out . . . wind is speaking words and the moon is sighing rhymes- the sun is dawning ____________________________ June 5, 2020 Poetry/Haibun/I Must Dwell With My Words Copyright Protected, ID 20-1258-335-03 All Rights Reserved, 2020, Constance La France Written for the Standard contest Rhymes and Reasons sponsor, Line Gauthier Second Place Haibun - 40 words Haiku - 5/7/5

This is such a brilliantly penned 'capture' of the way you 'do it,' Constance... And I envy you. I've got to get my thoughts down now --- or they usually go a-glimmering into that big black hole in my cerebrum... Congrats on your win in Line's contest. Happy Thursday, Gershon
