A poem can be written anywhere, anytime- <br />A poem can be written too early in the morning <br />While waiting in Talpiot for ‘Rami Levi Supermarket’ to open- <br />It can be written in one’s head in a frozen Army barracks in Beit El <br />Or in a small room on Rav Berlin St on an old Smith- Corona <br />In the first happy years of one’s marriage- <br />It can be written for years from Haganah St. in French Hill <br />In the family years and the lonely ones <br />It can be written walking by the sea in Tel Aviv <br />With small children in hand- <br />It can be written on the same shore years later when one’s life has been broken <br />By Love’s desertion- <br />It can be written in old age on Rehov Shahal in Givat Mordechai <br />As one takes joy from the birth of one’s first grandchild- <br /> <br />A poem can be written anywhere anytime- <br /> <br />I have been writing my poems in Israel <br />For more than half a lifetime- <br /> <br />May those too <br />Who come after me <br />Read and Write Poetry here.<br /><br />Shalom Freedman<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-poem-can-be-written-anywhere-anytime/
