On Writing and Words
I could take the world within my grasp, spin it and write eloquently
The moon could inspire many a romantic image and phrase
I could speak of the depths of the sea or speak philosophically,
Or write about almost anything, to leave you most amazed
But, here and now, I choose to be just so silly, be just me
For poetry need not endure the pain and wrath of just one form
Or subject matter, why must it always be of love, you see?
While variation of subject and style can be the new norm
Take up the license that each poet is issued and so carries
Utilize the changing roads and the directions for your course
Take your time though, for writing is better then unhurried
As your words will fall in place and stay a natural force
