In sleepless nights
Your voice I hear
A gentle whisper
By my ear
You speak of love
You speak of peace
Of vision found
And fears that cease
Help me to hold
Your words to last
Within my heart
Strengthen my grasp
Help me to write
Lest I forget
Your loving words
When troubles threat
Etch them deep
Into my soul
You are the quill
I am the scroll

You are very welcome. I admire poets. I strive to find the spirit to write poetry but it doesn’t always finds me…so I very much appreciate others.

I have tried many times to complete a full length novel. But I never seem to be able to finish, yet! Poetry is something that has just flowed out of me from a young age. Right now I am working on my economy of words while writing. I believe if I can learn it well I may be finally able to finish a full length manuscript.
