[The Birth if A Poem by Sehiry Reznichenko source google.com]
ON WRITING
Is then any tree a book?
Page after page,
Leaf after leaf of
Divine hieroglyphs thereof
Page after page.
Is then any ocean a magazine?
Wave after wave
Ripple after ripple of
Uncensored chirography hereof
Wave after wave.
Is then any Christmas a salvation?
Stable after stable
Of magi and of baby boy
Message of redemption ploy?
Stable after stable.
Is then any pen a poet's arm?
Scribble after scribble
Of syllables utterable
A serving of words adorable
Scribble after scribble .
