Plagiarism

2781

If I write your words  

Copy every line...

 

That would be plagiarism and that would be fine.

 

If I tried to explain them, 

Lead you in the way,

 

That would be vanity  

 

And vanity doesn't pay. 

 

If I understood your words, 

Written on my heart ...

 

With your inspiration, 

 

I could make a start...

 

When in meditation, 

 

If Your words start to glow...

 

I would have no hesitation, 

 

To write that which you show...

 

I make no plans

Sitting in my den 

But in anticipation 

I hold a ready pen. 

 

You never stopped surprising...

 

Should I be taken down?

 

I'll call it "pagearising"

 

My foolishness abounds.

    You - and I - in our 'spiritual' poems, don't copy words verbatim.
    We can check with the Author - He will say it's OK to use His words - the 'man upstairs'!

      He knows, we take our chances.
