I'm just a simple writer
I use not fancy words
I only write what's in my head
With words from the old school
I like to tell some stories
Some tales and even more
Of my own true life happenings
That I have kept in store.
I like to write a poem or two
And try to rhyme a verse
And if it sounds a little silly,
Then it won't be the first
I'm just a common person
A poet now it seems,
If that's a fact I'll gladly accept
The challenge of my dreams.
I'll keep on writing when I can
To share some tales and woes
And hopefully the poems you read
Will be a comfort to your soul.
The world will never rejoice or sing,
Nor will I win a golden globe
But I will always be content
To pen what's in my heart and soul
Yes, I too find writing very therapeutic - it was especially so when we discovered that my husband was terminally ill. Very best wishes, Ann.
