To Make Something New

A poem by Samuel’s brother.

What does it take to

make something new?

How long do you spend,

and what should you do?

When creativity seems

to have hit a rock,

and you’ve stumbled upon

a writer’s block.

I see him at work,

throughout the day,

thinking about all the

things he should say.

My brother works on

his computer for fun,

and he doesn’t seem to stop

until the work is all done.

He enjoys to type, 

with a clickety clack.

He always is working,

and he never drops the slack.

He enjoys to write,

and the gifts that come with it.

And he loves to try

and make his faith fit in it.

So what does it take to

make something new?

Put in the time, and the rest

will come to you.
