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.
