Inspirational Sonnet

Obsession in fascination.
Love and passionate convictions.
Toward poetry, life and love,
Inspiration comes from above!

I have read all of Langston Hughes,
Writings of comedy and blues.
I will never get enough of,
Inspiration comes from above!

For millions, he is an idol.
Turn a frown into a smile.
My testament, he is beloved.
Inspiration comes from above!

Obsession in fascination,
Inspiration comes from above.

This sonnet is dedicated to one of the more prolific and well known writers of his era. 
Langston Hughes, through reading his work I learned, yearned for my shot.. My favorite
poem from Langston Hughes is "Daybreak in Alabama"... If you have never read it, I suggest
you do.
