Keys

I need not prove my skill with words But understand this that though My teeth are not too sharp They have the ability to leave a mark That sound that rattles all those doors Is actually little me when I engage in locks And when you hear that sweet sound of a click I have already turned my head on a slender stick I come in all sizes big and small and can Start a car or wind that doll But the one key that is most precious to me I forge it from my thinking in a line In syllables verse or rhyme And slide it into position when I need to Open this brain and heart of mine! 13.9.2021

"But the one key that is most precious to me I forge it from my thinking in a line In syllables verse or rhyme" Poetry is, indeed, a key. Out of the Box thinking. Congratulations!
