The Written Word

The written word Not in itself an end, but yet Without it's symbols deep engraved All knowledge gained The world to soon forget Upon a page In metered form and rhyme Or scribbled notes, just words Each written down for us to send Our message into time Think what you feel Then write as though to shout Reveal each thought within each word The meaning there for all the world To know without a doubt
