Perhaps it’s old fashioned, this writing in rhyme,
This forming of words so they’re spoken in time.
I guess the style fits, I’m old fashioned myself.
Not yet in an urn to be placed on a shelf,
I find that my heart still has plenty to say.
I find it’s best shared in an old fashioned way.
Some are put off by the way that I share,
While others ignore me and don’t really care.
Though my rhymes are old fashioned each one carries love.
I pray they convey love that comes from above.
Sometimes it’s encouragement shared from the heart,
Or even some wisdom that I can impart.
I guess I’ll keep writing if only a few
Are touched when the love from my heart can come through.
I pray that the words that I put on the page,
Help others find courage regardless of age.
