Good Writing Sings
Good writing sings and always brings
a sense of clarity and coherence,
out of chaos, strife, and cloudy nights
for those with perseverance.
Good writing brings laughter, sends smiles to the rafters
and can take us to places unknown,
like Venus, Mars and innumerable stars
and give comfort when we're all alone.
Good writing makes a mind keep trying
to figure out the next chapter,
around the bend where time suspends
while pondering things that matter.
But good writing doesn't always end
where its author thought it should,
as oftentimes we lose ourselves
walking in the woods.
Good writing can save a sinking soul
from drowning in crashing waves,
and make a new start with a brand-new heart
redrawn, a new dawn, a new day.
And good writing wins again and again
when it lands on somebody's shore,
where they're lying around with their feet on the ground
and finally found
what they're looking for.
