Give me greed, And watch my words become a valiant steed.
Give me sadness, And I will turn it into gladness.
Give me love, And I will return it.

I like this :) It reminded me of a poem by Alexander Shaumyan called "My Advice to a Poet Who Wants to Get Published"--- different thought process and a totally different poem but the main idea threw me that way. I don't think he has it posted at AD, however, it is on his site. http://www.geocities.com/ashaumyan/morepoems/advice.html
THIS poem was excellent to read...I was there...:)
Scott, god I wish I could rhyme like that. :) It was such a nice poem, a writers poem that should go into the annals (not to be confused with anal) of writerdom! Peace, buddy, ED
