It is a jumble of words and letters
Neatly packed in meaningful phrases
Delicately woven through rhyme and verse
Embedded forever in crisp pages

It stretches spaces of one's mind
It tells of tales untold
It calms one 'till he would unwind
Through poetic songs so bold

It is someone's deepest thought
Melting into warm ink
And bleeding out for pen to plot
Onto hearts and minds in sync

It is someone's greatest desire
And dreams that might not be
It's reality in its grandest attire
It brings out beauty in fantasy

It is the voice of a feeling heart
Who can not move its tongue
So it beats instead into this art
Writing what it had not sung

It's that little shiver on your side
Or the smile that starts to grow
It's the warmth you feel inside
Or the tears that gently flow

It's that steady fall and rise
When inked words pass through lips
When ears hear what is seen by eyes
Giving tune to written quips

It is our window to the past
Our link to history's glorious greats
It's today's diary, one that will last
A gift to the future that awaits

It is pure, radiant and undying
Forever striving to reach its prime
For when all else has ceased living
It shall remain 'till the end of time
