I Sit and Write

When all else fails, I sit and write About whatever comes to mind My worries pack up and take flight My brain begins to unwind Words flow like butter Just waiting to be written My head releases clutter The results leave me smitten When my life is too much, I sit and write Any subject will do After an eventless day, I get a bite Before long I feel brand new No one understands my need Frustrated, it seems they just don't care Oblivious to the fact that I am planting a seed A beauty to grow from thin air When I feel like a failure, I sit and write It gives me a sense of purpose Once blinded, I now have sight It brings calmness to my circus

I can relate to this 100% Anna - I write to express my emotions, clear my head but mainly just for sheer pleasure:-) Hugs Jan xx
