A Poem A Day
I am a snake slinking in the sky.
I am the blazing yellow of the sun.
I am a soldier wanting peace.
I am a time line traveling
in the night before dawn.
I am the spiky vine of a plant.
I am a shining pearl in a rough clam.
I am an electric guitar rumbling again.
I am the Milky Way in the world’s well.
