We as poets,
the feelers of the world, the thinkers ,
we need to come together
instead of being against each other.

We are a special breed,
our kind, was placed upon
this earth for human kind,
to be a voice,
where others have none,
to heal,
to bring to light,
unity, love, peace.

We are the voice for the earth,
its destruction,
the voice for the animals in distinction,
the voice for the children.

We have been given a great gift,
with great power,
look throughout history,
what has been left
that has passed on through the years?
WORDS, books,
that educate generation after generation.
Nothing more has an effect on society
than words, quotes, etc.

The biggest book of all,
The bible still remains,
and is today changing lives.

Thanks D~ it just flowed out of my heart,
all at once, from the passion within I guess...lol....

I was just sent here to love, and make peace,
to bring unity. I have felt this in my heart and have known it since the age of twelve,
it is a hard burden to carry the weight of the world upon your heart.

When I see others hurt, or crying in the world, I cry and hurt with them, not even knowing them...wanting to heal or help them, and I feel I can do that with poetry, with words.

My gift comes from God...
