they ‘tween Twain and Tennyson Rod and Keats somewhere on paper ‘neath my sheets some inspired t’wards passion in word they come ‘round soon to be heard feeding on glimmers of ghost Wm would raise a glass in toast to see the seekers in their search to write of love or slender birch they that teach a child to read others who on word would feed sustenance being a volume or two as pages turn, the soul renewed they find entwined their rhyme of heart they learn their mind can find its part and pray they with tongue will forever speak while other theys, their words, will tweak come be among the countless theys that lift their quill and write their praise that pass the song, the torch, the living that write, to write they, that are giving they, that tell the story clear in form of ballad we hold dear our histories, our compassion flies never buried ‘neath Sol’s blue skies pick up the book there, on the shelf revive, with they, that, within your self seek the black upon the white and thank God they took to write thank God they were bound to write thank God we are one of them they, that keep ink fresh within their pen |

Yes, I thank God for the privilege to write, I used to hide my writings in a mattress now I'll never hide them again. Kathleen Blake |
