'i Am a Writer'

When I was a small child, my life was filled with grief, sadness, and tragedy; and in time my thoughts and words turned inward, and I became fascinated with nature. There were times I was found talking to flowers or trees, and the past called to me from old crumbling buildings; when I was a small child. Written in my poems, are experiences from my own personal twisted life; oh, at the beginning words just fell onto white, but later my writing style became more meaningful. I have lingered long with form, rhyme, and syllables, and have pondered the writings of the late great poets; and wrote my poems. Their writing inspires me, but, I rebel like a wild vine growing in nature; oh, I like my poems untidy and messy, uncontrolled, perhaps I write non-metrical on purpose. My poetry repeatedly tells a true story, and each day I study the style of late great poets; and I write and write. At last I have found my Zen, I can see quite clearly the entire map of my life; with those past destinations so dark and scary, but, some so lovely and wonderful. I have the power to select where my mind wanders, yet, would I change one single day of my life- NO for it has made me a writer. _________________________ December 15, 2017 Poetry/Verse/'I am a Writer' Copyright Protected, ID 17-1151-013-0 All Rights Reserved.
