Notes About The Poem

Listen to poem:

Pen In the Night

his words
one by one
picked and plucked
out of thin air

bewitching the muse
giddy with moondust
saunters and meanders
one moonbeam to the next

from heaven's gate
to his gentle pen
love songs in the night
bare the poet's soul

This poem has really touched me. For reasons I have a hard time describing. I sit here and feel like crying. I guess what you have written is what my soul has been trying to say. Thank you so much.
