A Poem About Poetry

At least that's the assignment although after several hours all I have is oodles of doodles on the pages of my journal and not much else; a word here a fragment there ~ peach/blossom/cherry/plum each/some/barely/none fascinate/fabricate communicate ~ but let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth for his love is sweeter than wild berries filled with the sun, and suddenly I realize I know less about you than I do this poem!

Last year I had about 80 pages of unfinished poems, rhymes, definitions, and miscellaneous thoughts for future poems. I thought I needed to stop starting, and start finishing. I cut those pages down to 88 this year. Love this poem Chetta! cheers! :)

isn't it awesome how our minds connect dots as we creatively engage our brains to write poetry. Your poem shows just that. Like you, I sometimes have the strangest revelations during the poetry writing process. :-)
