Poems I Never Wrote

On most days when I sit to write
Perhaps a rhyme or just a quote
Some words flowing without a fight
Some are poems I never wrote

I write about the things I know
The images that rise and float
But haunting are the seeds I sow
Detailed in poems I never wrote

Compose the promise that one day
I’ll finish strong, I make a note
But hidden words I want to say
Are in the poems I never wrote

The chances that I dare to take
Protected by my writer’s vote
I hide behind the rhymes I make
In the poems I never wrote

Andrea Dietrich Date: 10/11/2022 3:05:00 PM unfinished poems is what it seems to be that you are referring to. I very rarely leave my poems unfinished but I know some friends who simply do not finish all their poems. Good work on this writing challenge, Andy Login to Reply Andy Chunn Date: 11/11/2022 5:22:00 PM Thanks Andrea....sometimes the words are difficult!
