The Book Upon Your Shelf

We share a poem of how we feel,
Inspirations of thoughts so real
A poem of light for all to read.
Encouraging words to share a need

Consider this book upon your shelf,
Is it of you, or someone else
Poetic emotions,  just what is that,
Thoughts and words, left where they're at 

There's different strokes 
For different folks.
Noting no rights, noting no wrongs,
We share our words, we string along
.
Our lives are precious to be lived.
We yearn to love, and  forgive.
May we only write of how we feel.
One for all, we stand and kneel
.
Words may carry us to a soul,
May spread to others as a whole.
Cherish your life for what it is,
Encourage another for love is bliss. 

For after all is said and done
We're all together, just as one.
The poetic soul has much to share,
Compassion and love for how we care
.
The gift of words so true to heart,
Greetings to all, no meanings depart.
Release those words, only you shall
With an open mind, to share and tell 

So be fair to you, be true to yourself,
For here sits the book upon your shelf.
