Venturing Out
Writing poetry is like marching to a
marvelously lyrical band.
With guidance of the muse, he surprises with comings
through the pen in your hand.
With all this juggling and jangling, hopefully
comes streams of wonderous thought,
not unlike visiting the candy store and
savoring a favorite just bought.
Proud of the sustenance your musings
worked so hard to provide,
hoping the reader won’t think
you’ve really not tried.
Finished nourishing a myriad of reveries,
first one then another.
Parading now over, quickly run home
to the eternal safety of your mother.
