Shine

 

A poet always hopes

that the poem's words

will shine upon the page.



Be illuminated 

by the early light

of a June morning.



Create a sense of rhythm,

like the wavelets

licking the sandy shore.



Or the whooshing, rushing music

of a mountain stream

dancing with boulders.


Perhaps a gentle breeze

lifting and lilting

tiers of new maple leaves.


To wed experience with imagination.

Imagery with ingenuity.

Vision with enhanced awareness.
