Expression on Wooded Products
Written beauty is so eloquently true
Taking letters into meaningful families
As my way to release a deep gray-blue
By shy metaphors or saddened similes
Don't forget those hidden thoughts too
Tie them together for higher expression
For waking the soul to create sweet creations

Done quickly or by tactful, subtle elation
To make forms of angry lions or graceful birds
New muses are silently striking wherever
Almost always in the dull, daily scenery
Having no red ink makes ideas lost forever
Fading and erasing each word's frail memory
Causing the emotional author's soul to sever
If people never used blank paper and pens
Fragile minds would start to burn and spin
Our forethoughts slip and loose substance
Writing gives the weak mind's sanity assistance
Internal peace meets trophies and wins

I try to slow them down
Sometimes so fast and furious

As I sit here at my cluttered desk,
my creativity screams forth to escape my mind's eye.
To live on, perhaps for all eternity,
