    I Want to Write a Poem Today

    I Want to Write a Poem Today

    I want to write a poem today,
    Something to make me feel better,
    Something I can imagine others taking comfort in,
    Like petting them with words of heather,
    Fragrant, lifting them, a purple bed of heaven.

    I can rest there in the verses,
    Thoughts drifting by like puffy clouds,
    Watching others down below, their laborious living,
    Cloaking themselves in darkest shrouds,
    Needing, wanting, yearning, yet giving.

    May I share some inspiration,
    Of things I see and understand,
    How forgiveness and peace and loving others as ourselves,
    Not fisting, but reaching out our hand,
    To make us all feel better, taking comfort in.

    I particularly enjoyed the first stanza and line about "petting them".
