Poetry: a blank page

Poetry: a blank page

published on Helium.com

by Peter Stern




a lone sheet waiting to be sculpted

by a wandering artist

so many options

so many topics

to be considered

in a maze of humans

of feelings and emotions

who will be the one

to make the mark

to turn the slab of marble

into a work of art

fire, flood, famine or love

mimicking life and emitting value

a unique slab of transformed papyrus

into someone's dream or desire

it is a huge responsibility

for a lone sheet waiting to be sculpted.
