Strength

i have awaken and the morning is fresh in my mind
a feeling so clear though my head still not be free...
a thought of the birds in their southern flight
just thinking about how i have the strength in me...
i wonder most of all how did i get this far
guessing just lucky but that can't really be...
the highway in the distance, cars traveling back and forth
hoping that i still have the strength in me...
a life long passion, the burning desire that's within
how could you ignore it when you can see...
it takes you by surprise and it makes you open your eyes
and then you can really see the strength in me...
i've come to an end hoping i leave you aware
of the newest things that's shaping up for me...
i hope you don't wonder, i hope you not lost
just find your way by following the strength in me........
Edward Orlando Griffin

The below is harsh I just wanted to let you know. Otherwise that's a nice poem :) I like the format and the message...and the below...wow sorry. I have a strange form of typing tourettes syndrome...wow...sorry.

You...have awaken? Grammer? Heard of it?

Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
