Poetry and Me
My sweetest memories flow from my pen -
romance living on from remembering when.
Dreams I'm still living and dreams I've seen flee -
These are a part of poetry and me.
I sing praising God through words that I write
of earth and sky and my spirit's delight
in all lovely things I feel, hear and see.
These are a part of poetry and me.
Tall tales I invent, yet some events true
captured in verse are of things I lived through -
some being anecdotes of family.
These are a part of poetry and me.
Hundreds and hundreds of themes I explore -
mostly in rhymed forms; sometimes with humor.
And if it strikes me, I write in verse free!
These are a part of poetry and me.
