Never Say Never

I thought I'd write another poem, but really, don't know why! Cause, I got no inspiration, but, still I'm gonna try! I don't know what to write about, that makes it hard to do! I might come up with something, but, it may take a week or two! It could be something funny! It could be something sad! It could be really, really good, conversely, really bad! I'm feeling like I lost my touch. Nothing seems the same! Writing ain't that easy now, and I don't know what's to blame! Before, it wasn't all that hard! Words, just seemed to flow. But now, I just can't seem to think! What's different, I don't know! I once was happy, writing poems! I thought it kinda groovy! But now, it makes me madder than, a blind man at a silent movie! But then, someday it may come back! I never will say never! Then I can fulfill my lifelong dream, to be - the greatest poet ever!

LOL This is so funny, Ralph. I, too, loved the line about the "silent movie." You have a great sense of humor, but please know that we all get writers' block. I am going to send you a Soup Mail so I can get a Birthday Booklet to you. Love, Carolyn

ralph, you wrote a really good one here, regardless of feeling like you have "lost" that feeling. You gotta try the challenges. Honestly, poetry does not flow for me. If it were not for challenges here, I would hardly ever write!! Long time no see, my friend. where have you been??

Don't give up, Ralph! I just went through a long dry spell, but am slowly moving forward. For not having anything to write about you sure did a bang up job with this write. Enjoyed! Love, KIm
