THIS POEM CAME TO ME <br /> <br />This poem came to me <br />After I had woken. <br />It came slowly <br />It came in simple words <br />It came without knowing beforehand <br />What it was and how it should be. <br />This poem came to me <br />As I wrote again <br />To myself and for myself <br />The simple truth <br />That far away <br />There is someone else <br />Who is a real writer <br />And a true poet. <br />While I grope my way through my life <br />Wondering <br />How I have given so much time to Writing <br />And never really done it.<br /><br />Shalom Freedman<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/this-poem-came-to-me/
