    A MAGICIAN WITH A PEN

    (for Mike the portrait artist)


    LIKE POETRY IN MOTION, YOUR A MAGICIAN WITH A PEN,
    FOR YOU IT FLOWS SO EASILY, LIKE A RIVER WITH NO END.

    RARE IS THIS GIFT FROM GOD, A MAGNIFICENT GIFT IT BE,
    A GIFT IT IS FOR YOU TO SHARE, FOR OTHERS, A GIFT TO SEE.

    IN AWE THEY GAZE, AS YOUR PEN, SPILLS LIFE ONTO THE PAGE.
    LIFE SET STILL, FROZEN IN TIME, NEVER AGAIN TO AGE.

    I TAKE A LOOK, I TAKE A BREATH, I CAN'T SAY WHAT I FEEL,
    I'M NOT SURE, IF WORDS THERE WERE, TO EXPRESS WHAT SEEMS SO REAL.

    THEN I THOUGHT, BUT OF COURSE, I KNOW WHAT I CAN DO.
    GRAB MYSELF A PEN OF MY OWN, AND SHARE MY GIFT WITH YOU.

    Friend. I like this poem a lot. It is a simple yet expressive message that provides motivation to all poets.

    A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

    Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
