I used to write my poetry in a notebook, Thoughts and feelings for only my eyes to see But since downloading my new best friend Opuss, My words have become liberated and free
And although perhaps not every part of it, Necessarily appeals to my taste I take time to read and to savour, And I never make judgement in haste
Rights reserved, Copyright, doesn't matter, Use them or not, either way is just fine The rules are very easy to follow- What's yours is yours, and what's mine.. Is just mine
I know some have been worrying lately, That activity is stilted and slow But remember with most new ideas, They take time to nurture and grow
Like new love, which starts so full of passion, Then alters shape as the novelty disappears Becoming instead, something much deeper and everlasting, I really think there's no need for our fears
Just keep writing and the rest will come easy- Promote the benefits to all who can hear! New authors, reposts and encouragement, All make for a great atmosphere
So on quiet days when perhaps people are busy, Or just suffering from dreaded writers block Let's not panic or get in a tizzy, Take a breath, sit back and take stock
Stay focused on what we're all here for, The common goal we all share in the end Is to touch one another in some small way, By the beautiful words that are penned
And given time this community will flourish, Opuss surely will continue to grow We have all the tools needed to nourish, We just have to let our words flow.
