Internet Poets Poem by David Michael Jackson

Web Published Poets

I hail to you

sentient ones

keepers of the morning dew

masters of the web so

recently spun

hail to you

who dare submit

who dare feel and tell

hail to you

charmers

singers

jokers

lucky ones who

know the morning dew

for the sunrise comes

and the sunset

goes

so wail

cry

rant

try

each day is not an

entitlement

only the gift of

old

and young

and hope

hope for a stricken child

hope for a grandmother

hope for a prisoner

for we are all prisoners

and hope

that says indeed there is

a new law of God’s physics

all that matters cannot be destroyed

***
