A Poem's a Process

Think, plan, scheme, devise
 Write, read, review, revise

Sit, wait, reread, reflect,
  Insert, delete, keep, reject

Rethink, rewrite, reorganize
  Snip, cut, paste, prioritize

A poem's a process of many a step
  From that very first 'No' to that final 'Yep!'

Pandita Sietesantos Date: 9/27/2018 12:14:00 PM Oh my goodness, I know exactly what you are talking about :-)! As a matter of fact, I have quite a few unfinished pieces that I go back to periodically to see if I can complete them - but alas, they are still "works in progress!" LOL! I love how you put all this together in such a wonderful rhyming piece! Hugs. Pandita Login to Reply

Tom Cunningham Date: 9/26/2018 12:05:00 AM Gershon, that is spot on, I certainly hold back now before I realease them. In the past I've spotted errors and quickly hit the manage poems button.
