Poetry writing
I inhale the fragrance of morning,
the aroma of coffee
and bacon,
while contemplating the azure..
Is that the word I want?
The sky is blue,
but is it really azure
or some other shade of blue
for which there is no word.

How can I write a poem
about the splendor of creation
when the words
I want
haven't been created?
