Quill's Tip
Darkness scatters,
broken into shards
by drops of ink
that fall deep into
the crevices dispelling
shadows with a word.
One more day
signified not by sun,
but by expressions
caught between
the lines of a page
in a thick journal.
A lifetime is caught
on the sharp tip
of a quill poised,
and ready to create
imagery and emotion.
