I absolutely love this poem. It was written by Sonya at Follow Your Shadow.
In fact, I like it so much that I’m going to print it out and frame it! I also enjoyed the video that accompanies the poem.
I’d rather be the rhythm than the lyrics
I’d rather be the paper than the ink
I’d rather be the ears than the tongue
I’d rather be the photo than the caption
Recognise me through my deeds
Rather than my vows
Identify me with my smile
Not my prayer
May my utterances
Be overpowered by my expressions
Pay little attention to my language
For all the poetry I have penned
And will ever write
I want to be more than my words
More than words…
I’d Rather Be…
(Thank you Sreejit! Superb inspiration)
A reward fit for the challenge, much appreciated Karuna.
