Big World Little Poems.

The pen

Poetry is strange. 

The way the pen touches the paper, 

and like that the magic happens. 

words dance to the beat of a typewriter. 

they are paired witha deep feeling. 

a swirl of letters flows, 

from the mind, to the hand. 

Into the pen and onto the paper.

Some people don't understand it. 

Some need the right poem for the pieces to click.

And some, they will never understand. 

The pen is a tool. 

sometimes a wepon. 

The pen can tell of worlds,

The pen can write of love. 

The pen can inform of tragedy.

Or it can sit still, 

waiting.

Waiting for the right person, 

to write the right poem, 

and change the world.
