A poem for anyone who has ever put pen to page – may you know the power of the pen.

Power of the Pen

my pen is my voice
a silent voice streaming
ink-covered thoughts
across the page

my pen speaks softly
words wrapped in truth
like breath flowing
through moving lips

the kiss of language
pressed from person
to person, blessing
upon blessing

soundless messages
quietly welling up as
the eyes read the words
again and again

the power of the pen
