WHAT



and what does a poet do
to make her soul known to you
her words held within time and deed
be this her love and sacred creed
melodies majestic she in silence sings
in honor of what each breath does bring 
a moment to savor be it the NOW
with pen and paper she fulfills a vow
to take reflection and its known call
heed well the Glory, the Presence, the All.
