First Words <br /> <br />Ingots of the finest gold; <br />Words hammered to the tongues of men. <br />Emotions in full measure, <br />with backs faced towards the wind <br /> <br />With the poet’s breath, the chimes swing <br />At the striking of his words, they ring! <br />Music even finds its place, <br />as the pretty maidens sing. <br /> <br />Bill Cantrell<br /><br />Bill Cantrell<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/first-words-2/
