Picture by Josephine Wall

* * *

We express ourselves through verse
And we stand tall and proud
Through the written word we're joined
As we let our hearts be loud

Sometimes our gift might be revealed
Due to sadness and grief
As we expose much of our lives
We feel a sense of relief

To share our hearts with others
Is the best thing we can do
And although we may never meet
I feel so very close to you

We each have much to offer
A different story to be told
Within this sanctuary of souls
We let our lives unfold

I am in motion
I am blue
Love is an ocean
I'm anchored in you
- Shawn Mullins
