The Manuscript
I am intimidated just a little bit
by this manuscript I must admit
the one that I'm supposed to write
to take off in best-selling flight
yet I hold my own in poetry
never worry about the glory to be
can even finish a short story
knowing that your eyes will see
so what is it about this manuscript
that has me dreading to work on it
I think I worry about your appraising looks
knowing you write so many excellent books
but your sweet love and cherished insight
are slowly taking away this plight
and being worth their weight in gold
I will tell the story needing to be told......
