Creation

My creation is joy for it comes from my soul

I want you to hold it and be made whole

I give it to you an outpouring of me

Take and embrace what I want you to see

 

It starts inside with seeds of light

Growing there they give us sight

Rolling, turning, and getting so strong

Creation begins right where you belong

 

Our outpourings aren’t measured as merely a show

We must allow our treasures to grow

It is our soul’s life to express what lies deep

There is so much to give, we must not keep

 

Our joy is made manifest in purging our gift

To move others, inspire, strike awe, uplift

The rapture of finally making a rhyme

And knowing that your present was once mine

 

My creation is joy for it comes from my soul

I want you to hold it and be made whole

I give it to you an outpouring of me

Take and embrace what I want you to see
