Shine

Who was William?

Was he a prophet?

Or, maybe a King?

A priest instructed

Through vision, or

Inspiration, to lead,

Or redeem, Israel?

Who is the mother?

The father, relatives

Of this Shakespeare,

This man so versed?

Quotes I have heard

From a child till now,

Most of which apply

In life somehow.

In schools there are

Plays depicting his

Works. Not just then,

Or when I was young.

I hear his words when

I least imagine them,

From people I thought

Didn’t know of him.

Who is William, this

Shakespearean?

Is he the son of Jesse,

The brother of David,

Coming from the line

Of Judah? Another

Psalmist, philosopher,

A man with great

Insights. Or a poet, a

Playwright, with just

A simple message?

Words have a way of

Changing many things

In each one of us live.

Just like a Star, we also

Leave our prints with

Every word we use.

You can call me William

(with a smile).

My parents call me Charles,

With all of their heart.

Remember that you Shine!
