What are words upon a page?
Are they the children in the sand, constructing castles by day?
In the soft breath of the sea, are they the smiling faces that make the Sun so dim?
In the moonlight, are they the lovers fiercely embracing?
Low moans and soft caresses, are they the beads of sweat that drop from each pulsing body?
What are words upon a page?
Are they the girlish laughter that springs from a young lady's lips,
after she has been kissed?
In the wilderness, are they a small buck, still without his antlers?
Sitting on alters, fed Ambrosia, are they the gods of the Mountain Olympus?
What are words upon a page?
Poetry, only poetry.
I'm not completely without poetry, it's floating around in my head somewhere. However, I will admit that I am slow to write it out and post.

Enjoy. I sure do like this one.
