Writing Verse
By: Philip Kent Church
It is such a wonder, to write in verse.
Learning to write metrical, is much put.
A spell one falls under, could be a curse,
To wax poetical, with measured foot.
One finds in writing, there’s more than rhyming;
One makes a start, and inscribes a keen line.
It can be exciting, but takes timing,
Wrought from the heart, and recorded real fine.
Make a good showing, writing prolific;
Give more than seems, with all of your writing.
Reveal your knowing, something terrific,
Speak from your dreams, can be exciting.
There is no strife, only the elation,
Bringing to life, your own mind’s creation!
