A Writer’s Unwritten Rule
Yes, I’m inclined to write
You might say I’m obsessed to rhyme
But in today’s crazy world
Far worse has been done with time
So I let the voice inside
Come forth with words of prose
Sometimes of tears that fall like rain
Others of the beauty in a single rose
I hear angels sing within my heart
Listen closely and you too may hear it
The smile that grows upon your face
I think you’ll find it’s a pleasure to wear it
Walk this earth with more than open eyes
Each step with radiant heart
Don’t forsake yourself
For all the beauty you are
Sometimes the words come not from me
And I’m merely a writing tool
But I’ll always lend a hand
For that’s a writer’s unwritten rule
