My soul has fallen in love with words.
Words like pluviophile and audacity,
And cicatrize, sonder, and lovely.
They cloud my 3 AM thoughts
And spill relentlessly from my lips.
They flow from my racing pen
And cloud each space of the page.
A poet can put twenty-six letters
Into such a beautiful combination
That they become food for the soul,
And I am honored to be one of them
And to be able to help others
Fall in love with words too.
