Maybe I'Ll Write

What kind of poem should I write today?
Maybe something that makes you cry
Or maybe I'll write of happy things
So no one will have to die

Maybe I'll write of a love gone bad 
Of broken hearts and dreams
Or maybe I'll write of nightmares
Where darkness is filled with screams

Maybe I'll write a political prose
Where everyone has a voice
Or maybe I'll write of abortion
Pro life or maybe pro choice

Maybe I'll write of memories
That fade away through time
Or maybe I'll write a sonnet of love
Where heartbeats always rhyme

What kind of poem should I write today?
Maybe the seasons, the coming of fall
Or maybe I'll keep my feelings inside
And just write nothing at all

Makes no diff what you write about, my friend, just keep writing! Everything I've ever read that you have written has been outstanding. I look forward every day to reading your latest. Don't know how you do it but keep doing it. Best regards. Have a great weekend. Ralph
