Embrace the Words

Since the beginning of terrestrial time Early man began to repetitiously rhyme He looked to the stars in the naked night Grunting out rhythm in his figurative fright Even then he had to imperially impress To woo with sounds to their hearts caress Over time the worshipful word came about Waging wars with wounding words no doubt And then when man faithfully fully rose He began to write on pensive pages prose “Oh, heavenly bodies that capture this alluring night... Help me for I am drowning and can not look away... As I feast upon her face, for she walks on moonlight with Angels... Her azure eyes penetrate my very soul...help me divine night, for I am drowning in her beauty... My heart is in exile...” We poets in this world of love and sorrow Try to bring peace to the meretricious morrow Love thine enemies and put down thy sword Pick up thy precious pen and thus be adored There is more to words than what we know As we ink our way with a felicitous fluid flow So every poet must take their parental place A wonderful world of words we may embrace.
