Art of Words

That's what writing is
A gift from God
Expressing one's heart
Being a poet is getting your very first start

Whether you write books, poems or articles
It's all the same
But watch out
Because you just might seek fame

Using your gift will help the world
Your writing will up lift many
So enjoy the moment
Of a life of plenty

Remember though to always keep God first
If you don't your life may be worse
Writing is a busy task
One that's difficult to do

But if you have faith in God
He'll give you the strength to
Continue to let the words flow
Whether they come out fast or slow
This creative art is one of a kind
Flowing gently from the heart and the mind
