Poetry
Poetry is to me,
Both creation and therapy.
When I write I am immersed
In the realms of rhyme and verse.
Pen and paper I employ
Old fashioned yes, but brings me joy.
I love to quietly sit and think
Then my thoughts, put down in ink.
Some days it flows, some days not
A single line, still I jot.
Of course there is the dreaded 'block'
When creativity seems to stop.
But then inspiration unlocks the door,
Pen in hand, I write once more.
