The Young Poet
The Young Poet
To her, they are just words set on the page,
But to others, she’s a young, old sage who
Somehow sees beyond her years and knows
All of our hopes and fears.
There are those who read her poems many
Times a day, hoping to find clues along
life’s pathways.
Her words seem short, but she really has a
Lot to say.
She stares into space with a happy grin,
And her face glows with satisfaction.
