A Comment For Donald

No poetry
This saddens me
to see

How do we find in return
Words from which to learn

Shyness comes in many forms
Like emotions and storms

Write a verse
You'll like it
Great LIT

Literature begins with a single letter
How else will we get better?

That's the way I started, about forty years ago....one or two lines, and I felt wonderful...have been at it every since. Keep posting, Autumn, you'll get some attention before long. Love daver

Yes, Autumn, "Literature begins with a single letter." Whenever I have "writer's block," I just start putting stray thoughts on paper, word by word. Eventually, it leads in a surprising direction. Yours is a very astute observation about writing and inspiration!
