Poems Were Never Meant For Books
Poems Were Never Meant For BooksA Poem Just for You
© Thomas R. Farrell 2009
Poems were never meant for books...
They fall from chips of God's creation
Cascading as pieces off the universe
Like speckles from the stars,
Or flicks from moon beans tumbling in the night
And land on pages blank as newly fallen snow --
Waiting for you and me
To come and free them from their fate....
They yearn to be consumed by anyone who dares to read
The wisdom that they hold .....but beg to be chewed so very slowly
And spoken to the cadence of the tone encased in their design....
For did you know --it is in the reading
That you free them from their fate
Giving life to what the poem is all about
Bur, oddly, the author hopes you'll leave their message here on page
So others may discover such morsels
In their time and space good fortune has meant for them to have!
