Drawing a Blank

Have you ever drew a blank, when writing a poem?
   I have. I know what I want to write and I sit down and start to write it
   Then in the middle of the poem I am writing, I go blank.
   I stare at the poem in writing, hoping for some creative words to come.

   This is so frustrating. I love to write and get my feelings down on paper, or
   should I say on the computer. 
   I love to write spontaneously, just let my fingers do the walking across the 
   keys. Have the words come yet?
   I don't really know. I am just typing. 
   
   I have carried a note pad and a pen in case something comes to mind.
   Then I can write down my thoughts and put them in a poem.
   That's what my poems are mostly about, my thoughts.  

   I can get lost in my writing.
   It's a great stress relief.
   To just let go and let your fingers walk across the keys.
   Careful not to stumble. 
 
   Well I believe, my mind found some words to put down. 
   I love to write.

Good morning angel yes it’s interesting how a blank canvas can bring out so much information even when we’re not aware of it keep up the great writing because you grow so much more and you become so much more through your words it opens up so many different areas in your mind that are creative and special I’d like to share this link with you for some beautiful mind magic. https://monosnap.com/file/1r4jlrUnL2q8J8QzDhnPy6dV9rARNu God bless love and hugs GIGGLES the Poet
