Art's Greatest Gift Poem by Kurt Philip Behm

Art's Greatest Gift



The lack of fame
my spirit free

A bird uncaged
amongst the trees

Its weight not lifted
and never there

My breath in sequence
above the air

The lack of fame
art's greatest gift

My oath to no one
allegiance kept

As thoughts go hither
and feelings yon

My soul untempered
—my words to song

(Villanova Pennsylvania: September,2018)
