Rhyme

When it gets dark, I rhyme That makes me believe one day I will shine When it gets heavy, I rhyme It comes naturally, and it connects me to divine When life turns on me(which it sometimes will), I rhyme It makes me strong, makes me wise and kind When sailing through storms, I rhyme That's my talisman, my war cry, my footprints, my sign When I fail, I rhyme It gives me hope, gives me reason to keep trying When I succeed, I rhyme It helps me share my pot of joy with my comrades, its my chime When I am inspired, I rhyme Its my tribute to thy inspiration, keeps me sublime When happy, I rhyme That's the best way I know to travel through time When moon sings or sun shines, I rhyme It's my alma-mater, my albatross...my shrine.
