Analysis of Untitled
Kenneth R. Jenkins 1961 (Augusta, GA)
Say it with soul
Say it loud
Then say it bold.
Don't let up
Just say it clear
Say it with soul.
Poets dream dreams
Under the summer skies
Summer sunset schemes
Leaving questions why?
Then we dream in words
Because its all we see
Say it with soul
Say it loud
Then say it bold.
Never mind who don't listens
Just speak your mind
Never mind who'll hear
This world so unkind.
Give them rhythm
Give them beat
Say it with soul
Say it loud....
Underneath the bright lit moon
And blanket of stars at night
Dream a dream with delight
Then say it loud
Dream if you can...
Guide me to flights unknown
Then let me just down
My face shinning as shown
I can say it with soul
Say it Loud
Then dream....
