Where Ten-thousand Poems Brim...
This is the day that the Lord has made.We will rejoice (and rejoice) and be (humbly) glad in itPs.118:24
Seems like every new day bleeds/breedsA fresh crop of poems seeds
Seems like every season spillsPlethora of poem-thrills
Seems like every hour baredBegs a poem to be snared
Seems the world is full of inkBidding thirsty bards to drink
Seems life is a garden roomWhere poem-buds wait to bloom
Seems a pity then to hasteWhile a poem goes to waste
Where a moment waits to beWoven into poetry
Seems reason enough to pauseTo glean glints of poem-gauze
Seems like everywhere we lookLife is like a poem brook
Where each new day lilts and brimsWith ten-thousand poem-hymns
