I Write a Poem

I write a poem because there’s something

In my soul that needs it,

Despite the fact that there are times

When maybe no one reads it.

 

We all have things we do to help

Us feel a sense of pride,

Though oftentimes that treasure

Nestles, tucked away inside.

 

Of course, acknowledgement is nice,

But it is not required.

I do not write in hopes that I’ll

Be famous or admired.

 

Yet setting down my daily rhyme

Is what I do for me,

My thoughts spelled out and posted,

There for all the world to see.

 

And if I never hear a peep

About what I may say,

I’ve taken care of that myself,

With words to lead the way.
