Poetry that Inspires, Uplifts and Encourages
I saw a poem
I saw it clearly as I let my eyes linger --
something there
just beyond the obvious
and, like a trout hovering while the fly is cast and
insistently played upon the surface of the pond,
I felt it drawing me
words forming on my silent lips
as God spoke poem into existence
and I, taking the barb-less hook
swallowed deeply.
