Ira Joe Fisher's P-06877-etry (Valentine's Day edition) from Ridgefield Library

“P-06877-etry”

Welcome to another "P-06877-etry” feature where Ridgefield’s second Poet Laureate and 2-time Emmy award winner, Ira Joe Fisher, shares his poetic prowess with HamletHub readers! 

Always Love

There’s a breeze

Sporting your name.

Soft and often silent,

But always love

Threading through

Our day and through

The star-sparked night.

It slips over the snow;

It whispers through the birch;

It breathes summer

From the spring

And today …

In the middle of

February it ignores

The cold of winter

To warm and to glow

And to remind

Your heart and mine

There’s always love.

Always love.

** Ira’s newest collection of poems, The Birth of Snow is now available for purchase locally at Books on the Common!
