Inspired by Ivor Stevens – he mentioned “words don’t grow on trees” during the book launch of Cadence, and I beg to differ! Thank you for providing the inspiration for this piece!
we think, we write, and we edit our thoughts
words don’t grow on trees, he said
but they do end up on them, i thought
the process is an arduous one
yet so worthy is the endeavor
to transplant something visceral felt
unto pages we can all hold and savor

Beautiful poem
