Storytelling

Storytelling

Each of us has stories to tell if only we had the
courage to try

But what if they laugh at me? 
or worse say they don’t like what I wrote

I don’t think I could survive that,
laying bare my story, exposing my
most raw hour

We must uplift our future storytellers at every turn
 Stories are where we can safely moor, set our 
anchor, rest and write
