You're the Author

Write! Write! Write!

Let your thoughts flow from your mind

Write out all your scenery
so the readers aren’t so blind
Bring out all your characters
release them from their cage
Set them free to roam around
on a rich loquacious stage

Tell your story outright
don’t hide a single thing
let your characters run free

Don’t hide their emotion
or suppress their deepest fears
Tear your reader’s hearts out
and fill their eyes with tears

You are the Author
of the story
take your readers
on a trek through time

They’ll go where you take them
Your imagination gives them wings to fly
The words you write describe all your stories
Your feelings conveyed into their eyes

So if you feel you have a story
that you would really like to share
get out that pen and paper
Don’t fool around. Let down your hair.

Tell your story outright
don’t hide a single thing
let your characters run free

Don’t hide their emotion
or suppress their deepest fears
Tear your reader’s hearts out
and fill their eyes with tears

You are the Author
of the story
take your readers
on a trek through time

They’ll go where you take them
Your imagination gives them wings to fly
The words you write describe all your stories
Your feelings conveyed into their eyes

Thank you all for the wonderful comments.

I threw this together on the fly. I don't even know if it's musically correct. I started out in the key of D minor and ended up in the key of C and I have no clue how I made the modulation. laugh

I just pick up the guitar and star playing. Music rules get run over I guess. bigsmile
