THE MEASURE OF A POET

Every inch a poet

from his tippy toes

to his restless fingers

whence the poetry flows.

 

Every inch a word

running into lines

waiting on the edge of breath

ready to be heard.

 

Will you read for me

the measure of your life,

those inches spinning into miles

that set your spirit free?
