Turned Into Song Poem by Kurt Philip Behm

How open is your window,
how tall is your door

How old is your virtue,
how slippery your floor

How fresh is your perception,
how broad is your scope

How clear is your reflection,
how real is your hope

How strong is your commitment,
how deep is your well

How solid are your friendships,
how many pray tell

How sweet is your melody,
how lyrical the dawn

Will your words play a rhapsody
—once turned into song

(Villanova Pennsylvania: September,2016)
