Pen Lost~~where Disappeared New package waits As does a blank page A brain loaded with thoughts Like the pair of andirons' loads They oft have to wear, that which weighs Heavy, hot, burning as those thoughts of Despair the poet pens, when remembering The agony of painful emotions Which creep into the thoughts from no where Terrible abuse, but is it? Is it real, false thinking? Writing seems to help clear The cogs of the brain Where are those pens? Crinkle, click Flow starts Write
The line that says, like the pair of andirons' loads, is only 7 syllables because and irons is only two syllables despite the syllable counter saying it has three syllables.

Thank you, Jennifer. Sometimes I am awakened at night with a poem going through my head and sometimes I remember it and sometimes not. Your visit is inspiring. Sara

I'm glad you found your pens Sara, we poets need those!! Wonderful write, so relatable to most of us on the Soup, where is that pen?!For me, when my kids were little, it was " Quick...before the words fade...ok, a crayon and an envelope in a pinch...that'll do!" I love this write so much <3

BJ, Your kind review of my work encourages me. Yes, when my children were small I at times ended up with a crayon and whatever paper I could find but it was not about poetry back then. I appreciate the visit. Sara

Tom, Good that you could be away if it was a vacation of sorts. We are all doing okay except for our oldest daughter who fell and broke her tibia in two places. It will be six or eight weeks for her to heal. Thanks for the visit. Sara

Sara, you've created an exquisitely detailed double Etheree. The process of reading this was quite enjoyable. Although it's not easy to put one's thoughts down on a sheet of paper, understanding a situation is even more difficult. Hugs dear friend.

Why, thank you, Lasaad. Yes, things that happen in childhood can cause severe psychic trauma that causes severe pain in adulthood. It is not easy writing about it nor remembering nor dealing with the best way to go on living with the memories. Thanks for the visit. Sara
