Pen to paper
Pencil to napkin
Fingers to keyboard
Some avenue to express
What overruns my heart –
Jeremiah compared God’s Word
To a fire within his very bones*
In a need to tell
So much a need
That I cannot be silent –
Flow forth my children
Dress yourselves to fit
Be your role plain and simple
Or elegant and intellectual
Spread across page or screen –
Dancers must dance
Humor must laugh
Music must sing
So go you my stories and poems
Out to the world to read –
“This is my story
This is my song…”
Wing your way somewhere
Lay yourself on some heart
Point them to Jesus –
Pen to paper
Pencil to napkin
Fingers to keyboard
Some avenue to express
God lives in this writer’s heart.
