Ode To Writers

Just a tribute to you.

Caffeine riddled minds

Tingle with stimulation

Thoughts plotting their escape

Forming lines to execute their freedom


Worlds & characters spring to life

Through unimaginable imagination

We are the engineers

Constructing intrinsic works of art

Locked in literaries' glorious history


Emotions poured from a bleeding pen

Tears in ink, speak our pain

Infecting hearts & minds

With our contagious words


Inspiring youths to dream

Giving voice to the silenced souls

Tearing down walls of injustice

Setting forth truth on paper


Injecting knowledge into inquiring minds

Sharing our words through generations

Parting pieces of ourselves through verse

As our stories live on inside of them


We travel every continent

Through the eyes that take us in

And breathed out in voices

By those who speak our thoughts


So never let die, our pursuit for immortality

May our words echo loudly through time

That we may live on in eternity....

I adore poetry about poetry, and this one is special Christian, you had me at the first line, and it continued to invoke a response in my poetic heart. ;) Great read....!

I love every line but those were my favorite!

It makes me truly happy to hear such words! Thank you my dear friend! :)

[Frieda P]

The pleasure was all mine dear poet...you knocked this one out of the ballpark my friend. :)

[jacob erin-cilberto]

you echo the sentiments of so many poets...we don't necessarily want fame or fortune through our words...we just want to tell it like it is and leave some remembrance of ourselves for after we are long gone.

we hope our words will live in.

nicely penned.
