New Horizons (+1)

Kurt Philip Behm

As a poet it pays

to travel around

And visit new words

in verse still unfound

 

The time and the place

you hold in your hand

To barter the truth

as beauty withstands

 

As a poet it’s wise

to cross every line

To scale every mountain

with peaks still to climb

 

The muse of a traveler

when strange and unknown

Your spirit set free

—the horizon your home

 

(Dreamsleep: June, 2023)

 

 

"All The King's Horses ..."

 

Greed

the harbinger

of loves rejection

 

The Mirror

once cracked

—its image maligned

    Dear Kurt,

    “New Horizons”

    An engaging and delightful read. As I read your poem, I envision you…
    your travels, your life experiences, and so many other facets of your life will forever be present within me.


    “As a poet it pays
    to travel around
    And visit new words
    in verse still unfound”

    “Your spirit set free
    —the horizon your home”

    “To scale every mountain
    with peaks still to climb”

    I admire and respect your courage.

    Laura🌻
