The Writer Or A Messenger Poem by selvin mcrae

The Writer or a Messenger
Written by Selvin ‘Ewan’ McRae

I’m just an ordinary brother
Who jots my thoughts down on paper
Are these my own words
Or is it God inspired?

I made mention of my neighbors
Family, friends and foes
Christian, heathen and church goers
And those I just don’t know

I never see myself as a writer
Neither do I feel like a writer
Wonder if I’m really a writer
Or should that even matter?

I’ve wrote of past times
Proclaiming things of the present
Yet it is still possible for me
To reveal future events

I’m a servant of the most high
A designated messenger
Giving it to you in parables
Writing in a love language

I seek no fame or fortune
From all this poetry in writing
I just wish for them to be heard
So I know I’ve done my work

Take of me what you read
I am what my words feed
I do write for some without visions
So be careful of your conclusions
