Seymour

February 2, 2019

Dear Subscriber:

Each week we examine a theme from a variety of points of view. The theme for this week is portraits of men.

I welcome comments on my poems at https://nicholasgordon.blogspot.com .

A name poem for Seymour, who is devoted to seeking justice:

Seymour sees more than most can imagine.
Empathy rules his oft-hearkening heart.
Yearning for justice can open one's eyes
More often to pain than to panderer's lies.
Oceans are willing but rarely to part.
Undismayed, Seymour knows what of truth a pure passion
Running like fire through rock can impart.
