At Best Poem by Eric Cockrell

At Best

Rating: 2.0


a poet, at best,
is merely the bridge
between the small child

inside each of us,
and the Mother's breast!
the simple striking

of the common match,
that lights the fire,
the broom that sweeps,

yet has no name or need...
the words of the prayer
we pray with every breath!

Superb, you're still one of my favorites and it's easy see why. Great poem.
