    A Place for my Soul

    The sun is setting red in the west
    and traffic is moving fast and slow.
    Sitting here, watching, I can rest
    but I need a place to put my soul.
    The building is old but warm and clean
    with people inside who smile to all
    and it makes a friendly, sweet scene
    But I still look for a place to put my soul.
    I go to the house where my head lies down
    on a soft pillow far removed from the cold.
    While it is a refuge from the busy town
    I'm crying for a place to put my soul.
    Tomorrow will bring more freedom to chose
    how I play on this court with my ball.
    Tomorrow I'll laugh or tomorrow I'll lose.
    Do you see a place for my soul?

    YOU'RE THERE ALREADY, AND I'M ALREADY THERE.

    A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

    Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
