Poetry is the lamp of wisdom
Poetry has flowed in my veins since writing in school
and I wanted to share my love like a bath in the pool
I would pen on paper to express the love from my heart
by creating a beautiful rhyme to give to my sweetheart
I would think so deep inside to present the words I used
singing those lovely praises of beauty and not abused
by writing alone gave to me so much enjoyment and peace
encouraged to follow wisdom by my father who is now deceased
even though he is not alive within my soul I silently share the pain
I continue to express my deep emotions of life to seek my gain
I learned that in moments of turmoil I must look for the light
to fight with all challenges and stand for what is right
Today with the world of poets at my side chasing after my dream
I can create a new poem like a bubble flowing in the stream.
