A cup of coffee
And a book in my hands
Held open to read and relax
I make the space a little cosy
So that, I can imagine and trace
What the author has to say

The light is still on
And I am excitedly awake
To learn experiences
by Flipping pages
I have no idea
how more books it will take
To motivate me to write
And put together different stages

I know and have already realised
There is a lot of power in ink
According to what authors write
Few are awarded and others are criticized

I wish to write one day
Something that shakes the world
Luminary, aspiring and encouraging
Thoughts of all, together what holds

I tell myself
"Pick Up the Pen"
And start by writing a phrase
Write one and you will gradually write ten
And the trick goes this way

I am young but have a dream
To inspire one and all
I want to pen down
The deepest truths of life
Existing on this mega ball

Through what I write
I want to tell all
"Pick up the pen"
Ink down what you feel is right
Something that has your thoughts

Imperfection will come your way
But when practice runs-a-bout
Stick to it and stay
You will then be different from the crowd.
