Poets Design

Poet’s Design When daybreak comes and I no longer care to listen for the mourning doves first cry, anticipate the sunrise in the sky or smell the apple blossoms in the air my passion to write poetry will die. When night falls and I hear no symphony in creatures that were once so dear to me, when heaven is not magic to my eyes and rivers do no draw me to their side, my passion to write poetry will die. When miracles are only fantasy and justice doesn’t matter much to me, My purpose in this world will cease to be; Life is written in my poetry.

May that day never come, dear poet, until the final breath releases your poetic soul to the eternities...my first thought after reading

I cannot yet imagine a time in my life where I would be willing to give up poetry, but while reading your poem, Susan part of me said "me too."

When my husband died, I had writer's block for a few years. It just did not flow. Thankfully, it came back. Hugs Caren and thank you.
