Bring out the torch to the front porch

Set the grass aflame and get away

watch the world that was once a black crisp

turn to life and sanctuary


When Your done with the torch

return with the can

fill it with stories of your romances

and dry kisses

Fill it to the brim with your own written poetry

never spoken

and water it unto your new garden

turn it to a bouquet of worthy labor

of nature and those worthwhile loves

make the world a better place

with your own written voice


Then Turn around

Smile, Dance!

you have created something

far beyond the words on a page

that the world would light up in its brilliance

and melancholy

That your voice will be heard across the ages

and reach the ears of rulers

the benevolent's and the tyrants

even though you WILL fail a couple

million times here and there

that you WILL fail and you Will want to give up

I'm not gonna say keep on trying

Its up to you
