How did Hemingway do it
Pen those memorable lines we all know
Tolkien, Twain, Poe and Dickens
Those words that we still love to quote
The ones that continue to move us
Like a ship sailing into the night
A sunrise that lights up the darkness
With rays, iridescent and light
*
What magic does it take to write wonder
Lines with power to bring change to the world
Inspirations of a magical moments,
Pure emotion, from something you heard
How did they open up to that gift
To transfer mere words, filled with power
To embolden, inspire and uplift
Saving grace in the final hour
*
Mysteries that heighten the senses
Drama to dare and delight
Of ravens on wing in the distance
The desire to join and take flight
I want to feel all those emotions
Set sail on a journey of words
Disappear into a wave on the ocean
Creating my own little worlds
