The Writer

The Writer Solemn and quietly, they sit in their place of their own choosing Deepest within their thoughts of both amusing and confusing What phrase works, how does this sentence flow infusing Such a gift, making the words dance can be so amusing An eternity staring at a blank screen, watching the curser’s beat Searching, researching for their next inspiration to complete Immutable inner thoughts keeping so very indiscreet Allowing their thought and emotions to compete There are many forms of writing, and the genre is their domain Be it a such wonderful story they tell and how they entertain Subjects that excite you, involve you, erase the mundane Taking you places, some magical, some causing pain Writers of wonderful songs, lyrics and music that magically flow There are writers, storytellers and teachers of what they know There are writers of poetry, invoking emotions they bestow How their talent emerges, of this we do not know The mesmerizing effect of what music can bring in our everyday life The songwriter reaches you, knows how you struggle with strife The music, the band and guitar riffs that cut like a knife Giving you such wonderful memories all your life A wonderful tale that can take you to some far away places Perhaps a crime story is your liking, some unsolved cases Your vivid imagination flourishes as your heart races Sending you into a fantasy, imagining their faces Losing yourself in some well written poetry, touching your soul Words flowing magically, consuming your emotions whole As if the writer was writing to you, your heart they stole Leaving you with such memories for only you to extol The many formats to express deepest thoughts and emotions We the reader, immersed within our deepest devotions Mesmerized by the messages, in all their notions A good read can be like some magical potions
