Each Written Word #poetry #photography


Each word was a thread
an interwoven part
tears like dew drops
 from a broken heart
*
Each word was a plea
silent call to you
catching the phrase
before the wind it blew
*
Each word echoed love
tumbled in the waves
polished over time
waiting for the day
*
Each word a duet
a  poem in the dust
 inscribing now my fate
your embrace, I trust
*
Each word an inspiration
of stories that I live
 inked is the promise
etched upon my skin
*
While penning, what does a poet seek ~ Fame, understanding, love, expression?

  1. Beautiful, Leslie. You have showed how significant every single word is in a poem. I am wondering if this is a poet we would all know or……. You have me curious now.

  2. I too am curious as to who inspired this – and can appreciate your tribute even without knowing that
