A Poet’s Touch
A fallen leaf,
a poet can still see its glory.
Before it’s told
a poet imagines the story.
Amidst a crowd,
all voices become an illusion.
When poets write,
untangled is web of confusion.
Yes dreamers dream
with flame of the candles they light.
But words unsaid
are those only poet can write.
For most can see
what’s tangible held within clutch.
What’s underground,
a poet reveals with his touch.
About this poem
A writer sees beyond what’s visible.
