Mike's Gems

Guest blog from our Premier Poet, Michael Erdelen!

Hi fellow poets from time to time I will be dropping by with poems. Poems to touch your heart, make you think, make you smile or bring beauty into your life.  I will be calling these poems 'Mike's gems'.

THERE IS NO FRIGATE LIKE A BOOK

There is no frigate like a book
To take us lands away,
Nor any coursers like a page
Of prancing poetry.
This traverse may the poorest take
Without oppress of toll;
How frugal is the chariot
That bears a human soul!

          Emily Dickinson

Be kind to others.
