A fetching title
can save a poem
Like a fiery maestro
can free a song
Its marching orders
endorse each line
And beat a cadence
that words define
To set the page
and clear the way
It stakes a claim
to all you say
While some may tout
“It’s Just A Name”
The Sage reminds us
— its crown reclaims

It took me years to realize this that the title can not only change the popularity of a poem but its very meaning and poetic rating. Nicely said Kurt
Thanks so much.
Always welcome Kurt
Kurt, yep…I’m with you on this. A title can absolutely be the thing that makes me stop and enter the poem instead of passing it by. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛
Exactly, thanks.
