Write It DownAnd Sing

Invisible Poetry

Peace is like writing poetry,

Its own reward. The last parade

before the ending becomes

the last event. 
.
 

Troops come home, broken

and tired, standing in yesterday

mirror hoping a poem will come,

a catchy tune, a ballad for being

out of harm.

.

So I sing and sing or write

it down and make it float

for anyone to find and heed

as if my fingers were a guitar,

my imagination the strings.
