Something stirs the soul

The Process of Poetry

by Helena Frances

A seed of an idea, image, emotion
hovers then lands in prepared soil -
the writer's soul.

It seeks nourishment
and thoughtful consideration.

Words reach upward
toward the light of pen and paper.

Pruned, watered and cuddled ...
a poem unfolds and blossoms.
