So often, poets <br />with their poetic eyes, <br />ears, minds, hearts, souls, <br />record actions that <br />are already poetry or poetic <br />in themselves <br />or so it seems <br />which makes it easy <br />for poetic poets to write <br />poetic poetry <br /> <br />as when I watch you <br />poised so still, sitting there, <br />your face against the light, <br />painting meeting sculpture, <br />still as any animal, <br />still as any goddess <br /> <br />roaming the cosmos in your mind <br />seeking, ballpoint poised, <br />the answer to some hidden <br />crossword clue <br /> <br />living in poetry<br /><br />Michael Shepherd<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/0026-to-live-in-poetry/
