Speak to us dear Poetry man
Pick up your magic pen
Tell us in your words the things
That you feel deep within

Let us see upon the page
The things you keep inside
Show to us the many dreams
That in your mind reside

Reveal to us the secrets
That you hide within your heart
Take us deep inside your feelings
And make us all a part

One day you’ll lie beneath the earth
Your voice no longer heard
Though your thoughts will ride forever
Upon your magic written word


© Jack Roberts – June 17, 2003
