With pen and pad, I script
fine lines with mountains of words,
passion and intent,
laughter and creativeness flow

With pen and pad, I create
where ink is my mortar
and words my bricks.

With pen and pad, I etch
stanzas strong that become well polished floor
for eyes to travel in

With pen and pad, I persevere,
until poem is complete,
and skylight reveals great light.

Light so one runs with song
into visions of an artists mind.
