The Writer' Quest For Expression

The quest for written expression
displayed through the writer's pen
is a topic I find fascinating 
as I write of it again and again.

Whether writing of scenes around me
or the wonders of an awesome God,
to not write for any length of time
is of course to me rather odd.

It is in the painting of each canvas,
using a palette of colorful words
that I find I am delivered
of each thought that I have heard.

But the writer's quest for expression
sometimes comes so naturally to mind.
Yet, no matter how it is I get the job done,
when done, it's as a treasure of great find.
