- These Words- Poem by Carolyn Ford Witt

- THESE WORDS-

So many years I only read
Just what other people wrote
Words went dancing through my head
As I made each mental note.

I've always had a little song
I would make up as I went
Singing about the right and wrong
Of every little event.

I'd make up songs for my children
That they remember to this day,
Just a little bitty rhyme
On the things, I wished to say.

And now, with songs still dancing
I hear the rhyming more
As those words continue prancing
And out of my head...they pour.

I felt That Magic Finger
That touched me on my head
And sent these words to linger
On these pages...so well read...
