“Syllables and Sounds”

I love to write and write and write
I know not what about
But words I chase across the page
A message now to shout!
My heart and mind I exercise
And prisoners I now take
I capture all the words I need
And sentences I make
I fill the page with words of mirth
Or sad depressing times
I wrap them all around me too
Like clutching, sticky vines!!
I gather up the needed strength
And off again I go
I’m chasing syllables and sounds
That once again will grow
Into a glorious serenade
That all will now attend
For I am writing all these words
To mesmerize my friends!!!
