Poetry Paradise
This place is poetry paradise
And is turning my life around;
When once I would ramble, wander and scramble
Now I think more profound.
By waking each day thinking what can I say
That will make some since of it all;
How can I be nice and give some advice
To my friends with this poetic call.
Instead of the focus on problems
Affecting us each in kind;
Getting lost in the darkness and doldrums
Which plague our hearts and minds.
I’ve found a new path I think may last
Longer than a lickety-split,
Perhaps till I fly right up to the sky
And poetry seems to be it.
Driven within like a non-stop spin
As the earth, moon and sun;
This search to find words for thoughts yet unheard
Is uplifting, fomenting and fun.
I thank the stars and God thus far
For leading me here today;
With all of you who read write us few
To find one another and play.
Hide and go seek with words that speak
A whole new language of life;
This place is a drop of cool water we drink
Here in poetry paradise.
