Thought for the Day
“For years
I have been dreaming
of turning
writing into a sport
in the Olympic Games
that is called, tentatively
Wordlifting
in which I’d give
my simplest performance
by lifting
the lightest and
the liveliest word:
Love
till it flies
lifting me, weightless
into a sky
of loving
eyes.”
