Do You Like to Write Poetry?

Character:
Determines what I think and say,
Whether my works be wood and hay,
Or gold purified through the blaze;
Firm foundation through this tough maze.

Evokes shimmering morals pure,
Crumbling with civilization;
Offering to the world a cure
As foundation for our nation.
