Should I Share My Thoughts

Dare I show others, what it is I see? A path one may take, to set themselves free. The words that I speak, should give them a clue, Open a doorway for them to go through. By offering others an explanation. Each one can see their part of creation. I will share with them the thoughts of my soul, To them the beauty of Love will unfold. Would I dare die with my song still unsung? Like a tower’s bell that's never been rung. Nay I say, for today I'll bare my soul. The story I’ve been given must be told. A tapestry of words, I'll share with thee, The essence of Truth that's been shared with me.

from the get go, you shared your thoughts with me and have done so throughout our marriage.. I especially like the 3d verse...'the story I've been given must be told.' Grateful you're telling your story with poems. You've blessed my days doing so. hugs

God not only wants us to share truth, but I believe, we are commanded to do so. Very positive and valuable write. Thank you, Bill.

True, Joe, that's what the great commission is all about. That which we've seen and heard that comes from God we are to tell others. Thanks for the comment, my friend. Bill

Hello Bill You’ve captured that moment of hesitation we all feel, should we dare? but you answer with such resolve: “Nay I say, for today I’ll bare my soul.” That, right there, is the heart of every honest writer and seeker. You share the essence of truth in a way that encourages others not only to listen but to find their own voice. What’s folded inside us deserves to be told. Keep ringing that bell your story adds real music to the world. Summer Blessings, My Friend, Daniel

Let your voice sing, let your verses ring from the belltower.. we're ready and willing and waiting to hear. A beautiful heartfelt sonnet, my dear Texas friend. Warmest wishes.. ~Susan
