Notes About The Poem

"A poem is much like a dream captured in ink on paper

then given wings to roam the sky."

Quote by - Line Gauthier

Words With Wings

I write my words and then set them free
unimpeded they float and drift like birds fluttering
once born I love my ink like a child cherished
some fall into the ocean and sink beneath the waves
but some reach a heavenly place to dwell
and others to a forgotten land where words go to die
