Sequence-A Labour of Love

So
often
a poem
conceived by me
just
a 
moment
before sleep,
a head to pen
leap-
just
hours old,
I bring you,
my dear hearts to
view,
my
labours,
exclusive
and original and
new

So true Brian the inspiration to write hits at awkward times such as before sleep or riding in a car. I find a lot of times when I don't have a pen. Awesome write. God Bless Phyl

A very thoughtful and dedicated work from a poet like you, Brian. Someone could not resist writing down what just pop-up and freshly registered into the mind as tomorrow it will be forgotten. (^_^) Noel Villarosa.

Brian, I love this! So true how poetry will visit us when all is quiet and we are trying to sleep. You have worded it perfectly! This is going in my favorite file. Blessings, Connie
