To the Hopeful Poet

by elizabeth-balise

To the hopeful poet Then there are the wrong words the ones out of season-- the ones that harm Though my words are few in the everyday they have their reasons At times, been a gift-- of a second thought a dream a chance Never taken lightly The sound must be right and every implication "The tongue, unruly is set among the members-- a fire...." Your first line is cryptic enough.
