Gone Are The Unborn Poems
Gone are
The unborn poems of
Recent weeks.
A longing to release them
Speaks
Within.
Alas
They are past
Like a tempest
Intense on its passage.
But the wake is
Long
Left to another place
Another face
Another person’s page.
I leave it to that sage
To seize the moment
And reveal
The poem
That others too
May feel
Its rhythm and rhyme
In their own time.

Hi Simon – I hope things continue to improve … your poem rings so true – we do think of things to write … yet they become past time’s prime to write up … so many I have. Cheers Hilary
The thoughts that we think when our hands are busy with other things often go inside and hide when the pen or keyboard comes into view.
