today i re-connected with the magic of poetry so wanted to encourage you to keep writing! this is the first poem in my book

i thought
i ruminated
i overdid it
i grew tired
and frustrated

so then i started
to write
hard at first
but every morning
i started anew

and realized to be
a writer

all you have to do
is re-write
the narrative
in your head
that tries to
suffocate the soul
and starve the spirit

of your God-given
talents of
expression
so no more
suppression

just you
the pen
the paper
and your words

please write

the future of
the world
might just depend

on what you
have to say
