Notes About The Poem

I’m Also A Song

Hey…

I’m also a song

And I’m not afraid

To sing my own tune

But don’t

Think me

Arrogant

Or selfish

You too

Are a song

To be sung

But this song

Is about me

Rather than

About you

And if you

Don’t want to hear

Me sing my song

Just freely close

Your eyes…

In introducing

My song

I give the glory

To the Creator

For having me

Tuned up

With another

Sunrise

Having noted

Some 30

Full moons

Since my

80th year

Of waxing

And still

Being crooned

Perpendicular

To the blessed ground

And you can

Depend on me

As I’m still

Rhythmically here

Streaming each day

Via my divine Creator

Beseeching to be

An instrument

Of His peace

And a perpetual tune

Of His divine love…

Oh I am

A song

Sung each day

In the service

Of almighty God

By being

A soulful rendering

To my neighbors

For I am a song

With lyrics of

Inspirations

And with

Ever sounding

Rhythms of divine

Hope and faithful bars

Of never ending beats

Of liberating glory…

Oh I know the day

Is ever on the way

When I shall

Soon be done

With this troubled

Off beat world

However

Until then

My echos

Shall reverberate

For I am a song

To be sung

With a gospel choir’s

Motivating chorus

Melodically echoing

Divine wisdom

Supreme love

And faith…

And when

I’ve sung

Myself

To the

End

May

I see

God applauding

And whispering:

Well done my

Singing song

Well done

Now take

Your bow

And go

To your

Rest

Leaving

Eternal echoes:-

I'M ALSO A SONG

I’m Also A Song

Hey…
I’m also a song
And I’m not afraid
To sing my own tune
But don’t 
Think me 
Arrogant 
Or selfish
You too
Are a song
To be sung
But this song
Is about me
Rather than 
About you
And if  you
Don’t want to hear
Me sing my song
Just freely close 
Your eyes…

In introducing
My song
I give the glory
To the Creator 
For having me
Tuned up
With another 
Sunrise 
Having noted
Some 30 
Full moons
Since my
80th year
Of waxing
And still
Being crooned
Perpendicular  
To the blessed ground
And you can
Depend on me
As I’m still
Rhythmically here
Streaming each day
Via my divine Creator
Beseeching to be
An instrument
Of His peace 
And a perpetual tune
Of His divine love…

Oh I am
