Michael Jordan, Poet Soul - You Are It

a poet's soul is brimming with life
through tragedies and glorious highs,
we all are connected; we all deeply care;
a poet's soul speaks to the heart in us all.

this poet i have recently come to know
personfies overcoming tremendous odds
with grace, honesty and a generous spirit
this poet writes truth, deeply rooted in faith.

i feel blessed to know this kind, poet soul
his writing inspires and encourages by example
to whom do i speak of you wonder, i know,
michael jordan, poet soul; this tag is for you.


~the lovely & talented joseph spence wrote a tag 
for me, this is my first; i hope you enjoy~


***thank you joseph, i hope i did ok***

Hi Lynn...finally I have come across a poem of yours which had escaped my attention...and such a lovely tribute it is!! I had not heard of Michael Jordan, but after reading this I made it a point to read some of his poems; he is talented and he also has a great sense of humour, too. ~ Regards // paul
