         The Poet

He has a way of turning a phrase
Of making words rhyme and sing,
They spin and dance across the page
Telling of knights and kings.

He speaks of adventure in faraway lands
Tales of mystery and woe,
He writes of love, found and lost
Of hearts broken and whole.

He can make our hearts fill with gladness
Our spirits rise and soar,
Or weigh our souls with sorrow and sadness
Until we can take no more.

He has a special gift you see
You might say a touch of magic,
He can bring us into a fairytale
Be it passionate or be it tragic.

Nice,
but remember that E. B White wrote
that, (at least), one out of three people can write poetry.
It's no special talent or skill;
just time and will.
