"Lyric 17" by
Jose Garcia-Villa
First, a poem must be magical,
Then musical as a sea-gull.
It must be a brightness moving
and hold secret a bird's flowering.
It must be slender as a bell, and
it must hold fire as well.
It must have the wisdom of bows
and it must kneel like a rose.
It must be able to hear the
luminance of dove and deer.
It must be able to hide What
it seeks, like a bride.
And over all I would like to
hover
God, smiling from the poem's cover.
