A Sweetness Poem by Kurt Philip Behm

A Sweetness



A sweetness comes with age,
like fruit that's overripe

A Poet then a Sage,
on this journey into night

A wish distilled from all regret,
its seeds to be re-sewn

A sweetness comes with age,
that buried youth could never know

(Villanova Pennsylvania: October,2016)
