I Love To Write! Poem by Denis Martindale

I love to write by day and night, it makes me feel alive,
With some new poem in plain sight that I must help survive...
It lies there dangling on each line, as fluid as the sea,
Till I improve it by design, it's not quite poetry...
The challenge prompts my poet's heart, with dignified response,
That's when I set my words apart, or switch to other fonts...
Or plod along from verse to verse, from phrase to phrase as well,
With my whole being to immerse for that one tale to tell...
So pardon me, if I stay in, at home, to type again,
To carry on, some prize to win, like I've done now and then...

While this old world turns round and round, four seasons year by year,
I'm contemplating truths I've found that make things crystal clear...
I'd rather write than go outside, no matter, hot or cold,
The Internet helps me confide, to share what I behold...
And be this God or Jesus Christ, or angels helping Man,
Like Church believers once baptised, I'm doing what I can...
I could reach millions even now, bring fresh hope to the sad,
To ease each frown upon each brow, show blessings each has had...
I could reach billions over time,2,000 poems done,
I love to write and love to rhyme, to help them one by one...
