Words I drop onto the ground do crack my soul but make no sound.
Tears I spill on placid lake yet not a ripple, wave, or wake.
Sigh from heart felt fondness grows that not the lightest feather blows.

About this poem:
Nearly all of the poems I have written are the product of inspiration. Most often from someone I loved or love's demise. Usually conceived in the dim light of depression on a napkin. This one's origin is obvious and is one of my first of my first love. I am however not a purveyor of unhappiness and have a few that are descriptive in nature, whimsical at a time, and compassionate at another.
