I don't know how long it will last
But here now
How happy I am
As this small poem is being written now.

A little poem remains

Only the long lines can whisper
The Music of our greater dreams..

THE POET OVERWHELMED

The poet overwhelmed
By the momentary beauty of the world –

And writes his little lines
In the Morning Light.
