The Evolution of a Poem

What a beautiful process this is.
One thought contains the essence of the poem.
In this poem the essence is contained
In the word
Evolution.

As a poem evolves,
It produces a sequence of thoughts,
Each one following upon another,
Each one connected,
Giving deeper meaning to the preceding thought,
Providing further clarity and impact.

That’s the evolution of a poem.
Every poem I write
Involves a stream of thoughts,
That enhance the meaning
Of the essential thought expressed.
A poem evolves.

Dr. Tony
