My Poetry Epiphany
When I first started writing poetry,
rarely with new thoughts; almost always rhyme.
But often I felt so amazed to see
those poets who were writing all the time!
I asked one gal whose muse kept bringing luck
to her so often, “Just what do you do
to keep your flow and keep from getting stuck?
I want to write as often as do you,
but feeling blocked these days has been my plight!"
Her answer – my epiphany! She said,
“Take challenges and just sit down and WRITE!
Don’t worry. Thoughts will pop into your head.”
I did just that! Years later I well know
to simply simmer thoughts, then let them flow!
