A Creative Act
You write a poem and send it out
And hope somebody reads it,
For that’s what posting’s all about,
Though really, no one needs it.
Since doing a creative act
Is for the one creating
And even if the odds are stacked
Against you, life is waiting.
So take your talent from the shelf
Where maybe it’s been hidden
And do a favor to yourself
By sharing it, unbidden.
