Analysis of Time And Again
Poetry is more than words,
some is written—some is heard
Often long—yet sometimes short,
its power shared in strong retort
Questions cry—demanding verse,
with feelings new, still unrehearsed
Its focus like a laser aims,
at souls that search—time and again
(Villanova Pennsylvania: December, 2016)
