I saw a poem

I saw it clearly as I let my eyes linger --
something there
just beyond the obvious

and, like a trout hovering while the fly is cast and
insistently played upon the surface of the pond,
I felt it drawing me

words forming on my silent lips
as God spoke poem into existence
and I, taking the barb-less hook

swallowed deeply.

Lesley-Anne I am also a fan of your work, so well done on being selected. Love the poem and the imagery - right up my particular street writing-wise. Love, Anne. PS can I recommend Melanie Kerr and Diana Kay's work, both Brits, and I think they have something.

Leslie Anne, you have an incredible gift! Each new piece you write captivates me and this one more than others. Thanks for sharing your gifts with us on FW.

I really like this analogy, you have effectively brought the essence of that feeling of a poem stirring just under the surface and given it vision! Nice imagery, nice job!
