We don't read and write poetry because it's cute. We read and write poetry because we are members of the human race. And the human race is filled with passion. And medicine, law, business, engineering, these are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life. But poetry, beauty, romance, love, these are what we stay alive for." ~ Professor Keating (Robin Williams) in "Dead Poet's Society"

Having a Bun in the Oven
Having a Bun in the Oven
I do not fully understand my poem. It doesn't belong to me now. Like A gestating fetus perched in the womb, It arrives in its own time, fully developed- A child of the magic of creation
