The Written Word

Aye, the written word
Dearly, my dearest friend

Bestow the meekest

With thy power
Liberate thy most

Ignorant follower

 

And then to them
Make thee, great men

 

Aye, touché
To wisdom, to wit, to script
Tongue also sharp

And dreadfully quick

 

But thus a pen

Mightier and ever brave
With one bold stroke and swift of the quill
The most ardent of cynics, alas shall be swayed

I am surprised that I am first here, I find this a beautiful description of the power of the written word. Cheers Mike.
