Juicy

No time
like the present
nor better reason
than passion

limitations
must be broken
creativity
given her wings

fruit will come
with preparation
care
and persistence

the seeker
and the hungry
can always use
another gardener

scatter the seed
and let whosoever will
enjoy simple pleasures
some may overlook

this is not about you
not about them
has little to do with pride
only that one has tried

dare to chance
flirt with rebuke
face to the sun
hand to the plough

it's about time
and in the end
let the body be burned
and the music live on

strike while the iron glows
and the dragon of doubt sleeps
go to now ye poet son
go deep

go deep
