Richard Schnap- A Poem


INSPIRATION

Sometimes it comes
When I see a small bird
Caught in the jaws
Of a starving cat

And sometimes it comes
In a young man running
Just missing the bus
To his final exam

And sometimes it comes
When I answer the phone
And hear an old woman
Ask for someone else

And sometimes it comes
In a wind that breaks
The last living limb
Of a dying tree
