Jeff Fleischer - Why I Write

I write poetry
To create my own legacy.
To have something
To leave behind
After I die.
To enhance my world
And the world
Of so many others.
To give of myself
And share myself
With so many others.
To see if there
Are those out there
Who possibly feel
As I do.
This is why I write.
