To The Poets

You hauled yourselves to the tabernacle of life With your hearts you constructed the place of hope Overhauling the human spirit You refined the art of humanity Painting the fears, sorrows and triumphs with one brush You renovated the art of existence with your poems You brought life to the hopeless And a smile to the bereaved You are a rare breed of Souls Tempering with the fabric of existence You created an oasis for hope, faith and Love Shaping lives with your beautiful words You carved a valley Out of the solid rock of life You crafted a beautiful nest Where hope is nourished Faith is concentrated And Love is revealed To the poets I salute you May your words Be the wisdom That gives us courage To embrace our humanity
