My Gull Wheels On Poet Prose Poetry

I Hope I Helped

…This is where this story ends,
…And with hope one more begins,
 
…But it all depends on you,
…And what you decide to do,
 
…Will you take these words and share,
…These poems with artistic flair,
 
…Are these lessons only mine,
…Or should they be more refined,
 
…As my life comes to an end,
…I have no more time to spend,
 
…Spinning these gossamer webs,
…As the blood from my heart ebbs, 
 
…So no more sweet lullabies,
…As this crass old poet dies,
 
…But with one more line to go,
…I do hope I helped you grow.
