The Drive From Within

Within our very inner self us poets move into our gear there is the releasing of the clutch forward moving as we steer We run smoothly when in top gear different from reverse the other way what's the vital ingredient inside? one that drives you every day The love of words encaptures you wanting to inspire and transform lifting your pen stroking the paper the tips so smooth even still warm There's such a full emotion felt as one speaks through sparkling ink driving past every ink spilled page filled with words for others to drink So to write fills that something that nothing else can really do a driving force like no other holds you together just like glue ( written when going through dry spell some years ago to help me get back on track)
