The Stretch Before Reaching
The stretch before reaching
Is kind of slow
You see a thing, you want a thing
You can’t let go
It’s within your grasp
It lingers so near
The question remains
Is it touch you fear?
Cause you never quite get it
It’s just not for you
You stretch just before reaching
What good does that do?
Poetry is when an emotion has found its thought and the thought has found words.
Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
