Create
Creativity
A human inheritance
A treasure passed
In DNA
And
Direct from gnarled hands

You need not earn approval
or
Brace always for assault

Your source is fathoms deep
In aquifers of inspiration
Gathered and waiting

For your coming

For your courage
To name your longing

For your resolve
To pick up a pen
To release your stifled song

You are rooted in lush soil
Meant to grow exquisite dreams

Draw from the earth
Grow towards your star

Knowing always
Favor is already granted
Supported and fortified
By the love and legacy
of all
That came before you
