My Magic Wands

                                                                            My Magic Wands

Writing Utensils

So bland, yet so powerful

They possess infinite wisdom

And understanding

They are my magic wands

Pens, pencils, crayons, paint brushes, markers, highlighters

All so unique, yet they serve the same purpose

To some writing utensils are basic creations

But I see much more than that

I see my magic wands

I see what has created, what creates, and will create masterpieces

I see what aided legends like Van Gogh and Picasso

What helps musical geniuses like Coldplay, Led Zeppelin and Kanye West

Express their greatness through their craft

And it all starts with the magic wands

These “simple writing utensils” have insight into the minds of all humans

Know what their mind yearns to express

Whether on a paper, computer, or even a human body

Writing conveys what the mind sometimes cannot

Because these writing utensils are magic wands

So why do I write?

I write because I have the power

To express my innermost thoughts

I write because it is release therapy

And it is all thanks to my magic wands

Writing allows me to get out what no other human could bear to hear

I am not judged by my magic wands

They allow me to customize my expressions, thoughts, and feelings

In a barrage of colors and styles

Because they are magic wands

I write because

Even though no two languages are the same

Writing is a universal language shared by all human beings

It is a global form of expression that most humans understand

Because the magic wands help us

I write because writing gives me the potential

To overcome adversity and become extraordinary

To do what the great artists, musicians, and other noteworthy individuals have done

To make something out of nothing

And it all starts with my magic wands
