Page the Poet: Poetry to Inspire Your Own Poetry

When poets capture moments, Creation takes a bow, And taps her toe, in time, to show The world she made's a "Wow!" For Life loves certain poems so much It lets their spirit last, And helps great poets find their way To our day, from the past. ____________________________ The morning dawned, all bright, all brisk. All Washington was there To stare as Maya took the stage, A grey streak in her hair. Perhaps, she thought of Lincoln His monument's nearby, And how, if statues listen, Tears might glisten in his eye.
