Capturing Inspiration

words are found, not forced ebbing and flowing like waves capture them quickly when inspiration beckons or they’ll gently slip away

I have these feelings many times, but the thoughts and words slip away before I take my quill, Carolyn

How wonderful Carolyn... I can't count how many times I was inspired and lost the thought because I didn't write it down...hugs Tim

Oh How I relate to this Carolyn especially as it includes ebbing and flowing and i often walk to the local beach and write ... I now carry a notepad with me all the time - when inspiration hits we have to act or we lose the thought forever:-) Hugs Jan xxx
