Drop the pencil on the paper
Words flow in my head
It takes shape and rhythm
The beauty of roses red
A story, a poem,
A chapter in a book
Dropping the pencil on the paper
Brought words flowing like a brook
Clothed in lead and ink
My emotions are released
A burden off my heart
My confidence increased
Drop the pencil on the paper
Make it the best you've ever done
Drop the pencil on the paper
Until next time, the end

"I think language does bring us togther. Fragile and misleading as it is, it's the best communication we've got, and poetry is language at its most intense and potentially fulfilling. Poems do bring people together."

Well, this is both unexpected and pleasant. I really like this, mostly becaus eits so passioante.
Mediocre, but not bland.
