Poetry Man

Well I'm just a simple poetry man With rhymes about joys of the heart I live in this fantasy kingdom of words I turn on the switch and it starts Words and phrases come cascading out Of love and of life's simple pleasures I can't stop the flow I have no control The joy that it brings is unmeasured I'm new at this game of writing down words That reflect my innermost feelings My wish from the start is to touch every heart And to raise every soul to the ceiling Well I'm just a simple poetry man With rhymes about life and my feelings I see many people unhappy and sad And I wish that my words could be healing
