Tall Order

Well! That's a tall order I thought perusing your extraordinary list of words to include, in poetry new. Not, that I'm a stranger to the odd eureka moment I do freely admit. Perhaps, you will be gullible and kind to excuse my writing buffoonery. Just finished another rhyme recalling childhood traumas has triggered the old depression. Please utilise your empathy for I know this poem is not spectacular but hoping also not ubiquitous. 13th May 2018 Joined Poetry Soup 2nd May 2018 First poem posted: DAUGHTER Placed 1st

A genuinely unique write and a joy to read your poem dear Virginia! The essence of creative writing is to pen unpennd words.. to dig deeper into the unsaid in terms of imagery, imagination and wording.. Your pen is original, you write in a different way and that's the core of poetry.. keep inking and shine whenever you set your pen and heart. Stay blessed.
