Why I Write

Why do I write?
To make an ocean of words,
A river of sentences?
And adventurous sea?
Its for you to read 
My dance with words,
A play of sentences,
A road to my self,
Maybe from structure or rhyme,
I can find,
Spreading ink of what you like,
My make of a story,
Which is to show you a way,
Of my own self,
What I will make you feel,
Glad to read what I write,
You may like it,
But it can't be entirely true can it? 
That's for you to decide

Susan Ashley July 29, 2023 at 9:12 AM Dear Arastu, indeed, a poet's verse takes root and grows new life in the reader's heart, soul and imagination. The beauty of sharing one's artistry is a precious gift to both give and receive. Thank for sharing why you write. A splendid piece. Warmest wishes.. ~Susan Arastu Goyal July 29, 2023 at 8:15 PM Thank you very much, Susan :-)
