Poems from the Heart and Pen of the Magican

FOR I! THE AUTHOR OF THESE WORKS
HAVE SET FORTH TO PEN
OF WHAT I SEE AND FEEL IN LIFE.
I WISH NOT TO BE LIKE OTHER MEN, SO!
I PLAY WITH WORDS AS I PUT THEM DOWN.
I STACK THEM UP, THEN TURN THEM AROUND.
I TAKE A PAGE FROM REALITY AND FANTASY; A
BIT OF THE BIZARRE AND ADD THE LOVE AND
SADNESS WHICH BE WITHIN MY HEART. ADD NOW!
MY WISDOM OF THE YEARS.
FROM THIS! I SCULPTURE THE WORKING OF THE PEN.
FOR IF I BUT TOUCH YOUR HEART WITH LOVE,
LONGING, SADNESS, TEARS OR JOY.....
THEN YOU KNOW!
A POET! I THUS BE!

WALTER P THEDERAHN, THE MAGICIAN
