These Are My JOTtings, Part #2

The Heavy Task of Writing

That writing's such a heavy feat,
I must confess and dare repeat.
For telling words so plainly clear
are boring to the listening ear.

The often use of words of sense
won't need to readers recompense.
The showing words in every way
will draw attention, cause to stay.

But when I find one just like me,
with heart so glad my words to see,
then we'll have much to share with joy.
These stories will us oft employ.
