Poem No such word as can't by Lorna Cameron


No such word as can’t

If you can’t say it, write it
If you can’t defend it, fight it.
If you can’t feel it, try to
If you can’t conquer it, want to!

If you can’t see it, hear it
If you can’t listen, want to
If you want to feel it, touch it!
If you want to have it, try to.

Take time to see
Take time to be
Take time to listen
Look at you glisten!

‘I see it’ she says
‘Do you?’
He mutters
‘Can’t you?’ She enquires

‘Mine isn’t yours’ he whispers
Of course not… she smiles
‘What made you think…I thought that?’

Loving is easy
It’s life that’s a struggle
Make it easier on yourself
And those you love

The last layer
The biggest obstacle
The final answer
To the light of creation
And all that is real
Natural and true.

By Lorna Cameron
