Poise
Choice now dictates as words find form,
Poise firms the stake in simple norms.
Style shapes the fit when voice fits tell,
Stretch sanguine wit to weave new spell.
Firm then bold sight with ample proof,
Lean on the light that shines as truth.
Watch cryptic lines align new cause,
Sparkle and shine as stanzas course.
Grief inspires more than happy thoughts,
Brief yet sure store can usher lot.
First the image, then words hurl form,
From a blank page, ink stains script norm.
Poise of clear voice can flavour quest,
Words tell of choice where work thrills zest.
