Giving Back
The pen makes a powerful statement
that flows like a swift-moving
brook,
Reflecting ideas from the artist
and seen with only one look.
Embellished with colour to touch
a heart,
it's done by a poet-to-be
Who feels the dreams within the
heart,
setting the poetry free.
Painting the words with living
colour,
so everyone can see,
Is giving a little beauty back
from the joy that was given me.
