poetry – language chosen and arranged to create a specific emotional response through meaning, sound, and rhythm.

inspiration – the action or power of moving the intellect or emotions.

poem – the whisper of poetic surrender.

ifbychanceyouunderstand – the consequence of my poetic inspiration.  feelings expressed as words carefully strung together.

perhaps these experiences sound familiar?  or, you may not relate to them at all.

but…you probably know someone who would.

you do know someone who would.

take the time to reach out and let them know you care, even if you don’t understand.

for them, it may be the difference between life and death.
