Talents

Some talents are easier to share
To let others gain from a skill
Singers, musician, knitters
All can easily give you a thrill

For others, you need to learn
To appreciate the depth of difficulty
The painters, dancers, woodworkers
It can take time to appreciate properly

For me? I deal in truths
Both scientific and poetic
I'm good at learning stories
Seeing how the world is kinetic

And I'm learning communication
To try to get the ideas across
The issue with translation
Is there often occurs some loss

Mere words often struggle
To capture truth in all its beauty
But a practicing rhythm and mathematics
So I can fulfill my duty

Because I love to see the dancers dance
I love to hear the singers sing
The only exchange I have
Is to try to offer up this...thing

This talent I received raw
That I've developed over time
So let me seize at its essence
And capture it in rhyme
