Looking For Words

Looking for words. Pink and blue billows on the poetic sky drip of eager words Alas, towards dawn, a westerly wind blew cleared the sky In the morning blank screen lit up when the sun shone. But the sun passes as it must, the screen greys while waiting To be written; to be dreamless is a curse, slow death. Listless looking at the sky, finding blandness but also words Like other poets, I cannot steal but wish I could. I end this poem so I can say; that what is written here is mine.

A wonderful poem, Jan: Especially the opening line. Your poetic soul is simmering underneath and writing about not writing is a good way to awaken the Muse. Best, SuZ
