Many thanks to Janice Falls for introducing me to the beautiful poem, Manna, by Joseph Stroud. Janice is passionate about poetry, embracing the healing power of words. She shares the transformative power of poems on her blog, Heart Poems.

I feel just the same about photographs . . .
poems without words.

...look at me, is it foolish, shameful, arrogant
to say this,
see how the snow drifts down, look how happy
I am.
