The Writer's Creed

Gather 'round ye poets dear
come now all, need have no fear
Take thy pen to hand and heart
to form thy beauteous written art

Words collected in thy thought
debating choice: if thy aught
Strain thy mind to work the craft
and not appear to all as daft

Each hath an honour to display
a muse on which we draw each day
To make a masterpiece that's fit
defined as art, as it is writ

Author notes

In this poem, I offer it as a dedication to all of the fine poets that have come together to create the first book, for each has brought a piece of themselves, shown honour and greatness from within and I thank each one of you!
