How Do I Write?

Written with inspiration only Waves that ebb and flow, high and low Dry spells for days, then flow like the Nile in the rainy season Humor woven into my work, joy released Notebook in hand or scrap Pens and pencils interchanged readily ideas flow like a leaf on the river time is all I have. I made my first bad grade in handwriting in the second grade, it was devastating! Imagine me writing poetry now?! For Deborah Guzzi's contest, How do you write? Thanks Deborah for the inspiration.

Thank Jehovah in Jesus Christ name for the type writer,...I blew every grade dear poet in writing skills,...they said that I would be a doctor,..but they never thought about that lonely type writer I would find in an abandoned attic ! *SMILES*,.. your hand writing here is just fine dear! Awesome write ! james
