Where do poems come from? <br /> My young daughter said. <br />Do they come from a poem tree <br /> That grows in your head? <br />Or is there a cloud <br /> That rains in your mind? <br />And waters the verses <br /> Of a nursery rhyme vine. <br /> <br />Daddy, where do the poems come from? <br /> I just want to know. <br />Are they like a big quilt <br /> You imagine and sew. <br />Or do poems make a picture <br /> Like a painting so fine? <br />Just please don’t stop saying <br /> My poems at bedtime. <br /> <br /> 1/17/05<br /><br />Gary Bryson<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/where-do-poems-come-from/
