Write Me
                your ballad of beliefs
             your epistle of emotions 
           your parable of paradigms
         your chronicle of convictions

                   Underline     Me
                  ------------  -------
                     leave nothing out
                     embrace the honesty
                     bare your naked soul

     Italicize Me
         finesse the cadence
         narrate with engaging elan
         embellish with panache and aplomb

                 UPPERCASE ME
                     Magnify the Momentous
                     Shout from the Summits
                     Accentuate the Ascendant Apogees

     Bold Me
         use your signature font
         imbue me with the vocabulary of your DNA
         ...the glossary of your very own fingerprints

                  *Punctuate* 
                       your paragraphs with personality;
                       your chapters with charm -
                       your stanzas with s t y l e !

                    I am your diary of daydreams
                       your scrapbook of stories
                        your poem of promises
                           your litany of life
                             I am your tale

                                   Write 
                                    me

Masterpiece! Not only will I fav. But make a copy for personal reference. It is such a teaching tool for me yet an extension of me. This will be the most important teaching tool I have ever gotten as far as my poetry is concerned. My latest piece which I hope gets your attention is political with some hidden meaning I hope you look.T.S.
