A long time ago, I took an IQ test. At the end of this test, it gave a title to describe your best strength. My title was Wordwarrior, which I liked so much that it's now my Hotmail name:Wordwarrior55! This contest was my chance to write about my pen name!

_____________________________________________________________________

I’ll write and write until I die. It’s simply my inherent right, for a word warrior am I. Romance I write. Perhaps you’ll sigh. I write of both the dark and light. I’ll write and write until I die. I might use humor that is wry or verses that can have a bite, for a word warrior am I. With poetry I can be sly but it’s more often I’m polite. I’ll write and write until I die. Fiery word darts I let fly when thoughts inside my mind ignite, for a word warrior am I. With all my might, I’ll always try to write my best both day or night. I’ll write and write until I die, for a word warrior am I! July 10, 2020 for Silent One's Warrior Poetry Contest

This muse of yours is a graceful reflection into your thoughts Andrea. Glad I read this powerful villanelle of yours. I smiled at your username. We share a common one. My official poetry handles and blogs have my poems undersigned by the name 'Warrior'. Such a sweet coincidence. :) Blessings and love!

a picture may be worth a thousand words but this poem is worth a thousand pictures. Words, when wielded by a warrior uplift the fallen and topple the tyrant. Nice take on the theme andrea
