Why I Write

I write because I can And without a fee, For writing is so special As it gives me glee. I know I’m not great But I’ll do my very best, And when you see me coming Don’t let it be like the rest. Read it for the life And read it for the love, But never read if you must You’ll lose its sacred dove. Poetry is sound It calls you with a sound, As it pounds into your heart But lifts you from the ground. I write because I can And this you must know, I don’t care for the darkness Or the evil crow. Though poetry might seem at bay When bright light sun might dive, Just remember these sacred words That love will always thrive. I write because I can And only few can see, That what I do is special It’s special unto me.
