My response today to Doris Emmett’s Post-a-Day challenge.
“I love Writing because~~~?
It fulfills an expressive need
To work my fertile imagination.
A need to plant a literary seed
To stimulate a critical reaction.
–
I am a fisherman of verbal thought,
I bait my hook with evocative words
To catch the compliments and praise.
For my ability to put words together.
–
I don’t throw my words back in the air,
I write as I think, clear and free.
Rhyming or blank verse, I fire away,
My words become a part of me.
–
Writing is a way of recording life
A way of expressing my dreams
A way of breaking the shackles
That imprisoned the unexpected.
–
Writing is a disposable record.
A push on the delete button
Or a permanent revelation?
