What's in your pocket?

Happy Poem In Your Pocket Day!

Today, you are officially encouraged to carry a poem, share a poem, write a poem, recite a poem . . . live your poem. It's one of my favorite 'holidays' — rivaling my love of May Day (the all but forgotten act of secretly leaving a clutch of flowers at a neighbor's door). 

Here's the poem I'll be carrying today:

A Great Need

Out
of a great need
we are all holding hands
and climbing.

Not loving is a letting go.
Listen,
the terrain around here
is
far too
dangerous
for
that.

— Hafiz
