I need to write like the sun needs to shine
like the wind needs to breath.
stars twinkle dogs ******

I love to hold a pen
and watch the words come out the end
reading what I wrote, and felt
and who was there and what was said.

There are stories in the mind
in the air, inside and out.
Must fight this demon doubt
who says I've naught to say.

I need to write to see
if someone hears me
feels me, holds this all together
and might say...."Yes!"
