What's In A Poem? Poem by Sandra Feldman

What's in a poem,
That man can't destroy?
Essentially Love,
With feelings to spare,
A love so deep,
That it does then dare,
Surround the World,
With sweetest care.

What's in a poem?
The poet's soul,
Imagination, encircles all,
Musical tones,
A waltz from the heart,
Deepest feelings, that don't depart.

What's in a poem?
A micro-world,
Of sounds and wonders,
Of things unheard,
Of thoughts that thunder,
And fly like birds!
Of feelings turned,
Into precious words.

Epilogue
A poem must never be dark,
It must convey the light, the spark,
That lingers in the poet's heart,
Of which the reader must be part.
