Ars Poetica
Poetry is my inspiration
to my journey's destination.
I'll never lose my faith, you see,
for poetry still comforts me
for it has opened many doors.
These echoes in the corridors
of mind and soul have made me whole,
for poetry still fills my soul.
Though by some words I'm sometimes hurt;
(for thoughtless words can be so curt)
it's words, mere words, that feed the flame.
It's words that healed the halt and lame.
It is words that feed this fire
and it's words that still inspire.
Yes I have faith in poetry,
for it has been a friend to me.
