"Grasp Now Thy Missive Pen..."

Grasp now
      Thy missive pen
            For thy letters to the world.
For is it not
      At times like these
            Thy message come unfurl'd?

For at times like these
      Should thy message grow,
            Accept them with Delight;
For 'tis through Pain
      That Nature chose
            To set thee back upright!

So tell thy story -
      Show the way -
            That those not pain'd might learn.
That Pain and Hurt
      Might they stay,
            But still such courage earn.

So grasp it now,
      Thy missive pen
            For thy letters to the world,
And take a chance -
      Thou know not when
            Thy message come unfurl'd.
                                - end -
