Do You Write Poetry? (2) (3) (4)

Write



Write,

Right?

If you don’t write

You will never right a wrong.

But if you don’t right a wrong,

You will never write a right

A wrong,

Is a societal ill,

That eventually kills.

The art of writing thrills;

When you find that it can cure

The societal ills to the core.

When you see it as your right to write

But don’t make writing a rite.

When you write

The wings of the printed page

Will spread your thoughts, without plenty wage.

Your words will leap over boundaries

Into Palaces, towns, homes, countries

And even the territory of enemies



When you want to convey

Your thoughts in words today;

You have to write, I pray.

When you utter your thoughts

The wind will steal your worth.



Though pictures speak more

Than a thousand words. For sure

Only words can explain what

The picture is portraying in worth.



When you want to lay bare

Your mind; write, don’t spare.
