poetry is like my religion

Poetry is like my Religion



My poetry emanates from

The Supreme Being: God

Poetic ink flows through my Veins

And my heart is wrapped

Like letters

That has been written

Permanent



Poetry is like a compass

That a pirate uses

To find his treasure

Poetry makes me yearn

And gravitate for the highest

Altitude of my potential

I serve poetry

And poetry serves me well



I ask the master to teach me

The student to write

Poems as if they were Psalms and Proverbs

Poetry propels me like wind

To fly ocean and seas

Far distance

Leaving my mark

To show I existed



I have so much

I want to give

So much greatness thrust upon me

That I beam even

In the mid day sun.
