Its not enough just to make a few lines of rhyme
But that the words take up more than just your time
To flow so naturally with reference
That it contain something of substance
For a waste of space
To nowhere it will trace
Listen of whispers within
A calling from where to begin
From your heart such passionate emotions
Words of expression to describe your devotions
Be it music that drives you to be lost in dance
Or the stroke of brush upon waiting canvas
A picture paints a thousand words
In the blink of an eye, a camera captures a silence heard
To an artist of passion, it is their duty
Compelled to share notions of beauty
In everyone lurks the need to express
Emotions locked inside will lead to useless stress
Open the doors to mind and heart
Let the passions within express your own beautiful art

Good write AP.
Thank you orchidee. ; )
Good write, we all try to put our emotions on the page as you have done with this poem.
Thanks Goldfinch. When I wrote this in 2004 it was mostly aimed at the inexperienced and shy people who think that they can't write poetry. And my theory is that they can't write poetry if they don't try. They have to start somewhere, as we all did. Thanks Goldfinch. ; )
Well written and expressed
Thanks Tony. ; )
