A Wondering What To Write
A Wondering What to Write......
a wondering
at what to write was I,
really pondering
at my station,
of trying to push on through
a thing that all scribblers hate;
a writers-block of all things.
no what, when or where
not a skerrick from me pen;
all inspirations gone Kaput!
only naught, not a thing, zilch!
really nothing to inspire the urge
in order
to let letters, flow accordingly.
then;
in a flash of sheer brilliance,
it’s back to basics go!
for if I were to be a great poet so
of some description,
and free from inhibitions be,
I would describe my feelings so
in a highly imaginative way.
or if I was a troubadour;
from my pen would come
lines of love in a lyrical sense.
then again you see;
even a sonnet spinner I would be
of fourteen lines laid poetic down
would do for me.
suddenly!
right there;
there is hope in the air
of becoming a yarn spinner of note,
of weaving and rambling on with quotes,
‘bout tall tales of distant pasts
with a yarmulke on me head.
So here was I my friend
a wondering what to write….
Francis Cooper - Mac
