~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The perfect poem goes something like this – Feeling stings, like a bee Quick as a tear Just as abruptly as a star’s glowing A whisper, a sigh, a stirring – Stars of Clarity… What it means to truly see beyond The grief, the longing, the all-consuming Passion! The perfect poem is any poem that bleeds, Not just ink But light, laughter, love Signs of life beneath layers of words!

stunning, absolutely stunning, Regina! I love how you used the prompt 'clarity of stars' to describe the passion of poets and the relationship they have with words. This is a fav for me. Well done!
