where creative minds can interact
We all have ways in which we express who we are
Some design buildings, others dance, and there some who bake
Many are the ways in which we can showcase our thoughts & feelings
For me, it is through the art of song & poetry
I talk a lot, anyone who knows me knows this to be true
But there are times when I can’t seem to find the words to speak aloud
When I go over it a thousand times in my mind & words fail me
This is when I let the words instead flow from my fingers instead of my mouth
There is something about writing, or in this case typing the words within my mind
And while the words that form don’t always rhyme as typical poetry might
They always somehow aptly tell all who will read it exactly what I am trying to convey
It’s been an outlet for me for so many years, a way to truly express myself
I don’t know if my words will ever grace libraries and bookstores
But I do know that they have reached thousands of eyes
And touched at least as many hearts over the years
So even if I never make a dime for my talent, I still feel richer than I can say
I share what I have to say, how I feel, and what I think so that you might better know me
And also because I hope to inspire, instill courage, and to encourage people to follow their dreams
No matter what you aspire to do, no matter who you are, I hope that you know you’re important
Though there are many who read my words that I will never in person meet, still you do matter
One of my purposes in life is to love others & to show that love in all the ways that I can
His words have taught me to reach out to the world around me
But even before I came to know & love my wondrous God above
Love for mankind always had its place within my heart
Through acts of kindness, friendship, song, and poetry is how I tell my story
And it’s how I show you all how much I care for each and every one of you
May each of you that reads this know that I am blessed by your presence
Your support for what I do means more to me than I can ever truly say
But let me do the best that I can to show you how I feel with my words
Though no amount of cliches, witty phrases, or sentiments will ever really suffice
There is one thing I’d like to say though & may it touch your hearts as your support touches mine
This simple word can make a major impact & may it do just that now: Thank you

Thank you, Maryanne! :) I really appreciate that!
How lovely to read and to feel what you express. Your extension and awareness of gratitude is beautiful, as is your accounting of why you share. And, thank you :-)
