I Write Andwrite These Small Poems Poem by Shalom Freedman
I Write Andwrite These Small Poems
I write and write these small poems
But what do they mean?
After all the years
The silence tells me
Of my own small worth
As a writer
It is possible to live with this
To know one's own insignificance
There are so many other lights in life
So much beauty
So much caring and love
I am not what I hoped to be
And tried all my adult life to be
But in my old age
This insignificance
Is not what I fear most.
The silence tells many things and even small poems motivate mind. We learn many things from failure and try to lead ahead. This poem is excellently penned.10
