Constance La France Poet Rhyme

I Am Pen Obsessed

I can be tempted from penning
         the sun and the bird songs call to me
      I want to sketch and paint a scene
         and walk about and find inspiration
  and I am drawn to go shopping for trinkets
  but, none of this will give my words wings
        oh, temptation, is a great burden
  yet, in the end . . . . I am pen obsessed

Andrea Dietrich March 29, 2020 at 1:56 PM Love this one, Dear Heart. Did it garner a good placement? I feel so confused what to enter in his contests!! Constance La France March 31, 2020 at 11:06 AM Andrea, thanks for visiting and the compliment, the poem did not do that well, an Honorable Mention but whatever, I too am confused, whenever I think that I have figured it out I haven't _Constance

Jc Hawkens March 29, 2020 at 6:05 AM Ah but with a pen, in your hand, you sketch and paint such wonderful scenes. Such a delight as always. Eloquently written. Thank you, JC Hawkens Constance La France March 31, 2020 at 11:08 AM JC, thanks for visiting and for the compliment on my oem, yes, I am forever creating, be it writing, sketching, painting, doodles, plus the thousand other projects I have on the go at the moment (the seedlings are taking over) _Constance
