[hometext] => Okay so this is somewhat inspirational poetry. It's not like the stuff where you have a bad accident and live because of a miracle. I've never experienced that and am not deep enough to write about that stuff....This is more like for those with gifts that are "blooming" to encourage you to offer even a little of what great treasures you store inside....
[bodytext] => Few have been Gifted with the beautiful power of Art,
To express what one've seen with the eyes or have felt with the living heart With a stroke of a brush on a canvas so white, Of deepest black for eternal night With flicks of turquoise for oceans so deep, Of earthen brown for cliffs so steep, Of beauty untold only seen by these few Of emotions stirred that are completely new Few have been Given the lovely power of Song, To tell of a time so short or a journey so long So beautiful a melody that the heart cries a river over time With a melodic tune that hypnotizes the soul with its wonderful rhyme Songs of love unexpressed, of hatred so deep Of regrets of the past, of the nightmares in sleep Of what only the heart and the tortured soul can hear Of the bravest acts or maybe the most cowardly fear Few have been Blessed with the ensnaring gift of Word To write down what only the imagination has heard To transport the reader into a world far away, To lead them on a continuing hunt and "The End" is the prey A story of birds, trees, and spirits come alive A place in the past where the dancers can "jive" A tale of mystery, murder, and much suspense A legend where the hero must sacrifice to commence A myth of love, of hate, and of much much more By the time you're done your eyes'll be sore These few will soon or have already discovered their gift So share your dreams and feelings, if you get my drift.......
