Poetry, You Are My Reason

Poetry, You Are My Reason First time ever I saw you, you were lyrics in a song. You touched the very soul in me you helped to keep me strong. You gave me hope when hopeless through changes in due season. You became the very blood in me poetry, you are my reason. You cause my soul to soar above where wings of eagles fly. You unlock the healing that is in the tears I cry. You're the voice that's in the wind the answered prayers I pray. The song deep in my heart, you're words I long to say. You move me when unmovable you shake me to my core. When I've nothing left to give you help me to give more. You are the life I choose to live the way I show I care. You are the very strength in me the love I have to share. You are the hope that lives in me the faith that keeps on growing. The good in me the world can see the beauty in me showing. You carry me when I am weak through changes in due season. You are the very heart in me poetry, you are my reason. Edwin C Hofert
