"Poetry is the spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings . . . " Wordsworth _______________ I write poetry that when read may seem easy, Hard writing makes "easy" reading, it is said; What seems spontaneous is really quite weepy, The skill- art of the poet, from a pen that bled Hard writing, makes easy reading it is said, Inspiration can come from outside or within; The skill, art of the poet- from a pen that bled, Our unconscious flows even before we begin. Inspiration- can come for outside or within, Even when we are asleep, MUSE is creating; Our unconscious flows- even before we begin, Poet's souls are like a thousand skylarks singing. Even when we are asleep, M U S E is creating, What seems spontaneous is really quite weepy; Poet's souls are like as thousand skylarks singing I write poetry- that when read may seem easy. ________________________ September 28, 2016 Poetry/Pantoum/I Write Poetry Copyright Protected ID 16-834-219-0 All Rights Reserved.

I LOVE this, Constance. I think I have an older poem with this same title! Very different poem of course. But I think the poet who "writes hard" as you said here is the one who can claim this title!!
