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.
