Spontaneity

 

"Spontaneity is childlike wonder, it is simplicity, abandon and
 curiosity; but, it takes 'courage' to embrace the unexpected."

                                                          Quote by _Constance
 

I like to write free,
to just drift in whimsey and rhyme:
just brave me,
fancy free;
writing on a whim where I shine !

My words twirl and dance,
muse, and me in a childlike play:
happenstance,
we enhance;
and like magic words float and sway !

Winging it in peace,
I entwine in a trance serene:
to release,
what's beneath,
often muse takes me to fields green !

Disregarding rule,
in reckless abandon I write:
call me fool,
or jewel;
free my words soar into the light !


  "Discarding narrow thought flow crutch
we learn directly by soft touch
and what we garner we relay
to the vast void in childlike play
entwined thus with the universe
we dance without need to rehearse"

The Situation February 26, 2024 at 6:48 PM The many years I've known you. You know the way it comes to us. By Muse. Constance La France February 27, 2024 at 7:18 AM Situation, thank you for the comment, I think that I have more then one Muse depending on the type of poem I am writing, for example I know Snow (because I love snow) is my Muse for Winter poems, he is almost a lover, then there is Forest for nature poems, and death for sad poems, etc, etc, blessings, Constance

Daniel Henry Rodgers February 26, 2024 at 4:43 PM Dear Constance, Your poem is pure joy! It perfectly captures the essence of free-flowing creativity and the courage to embrace the unexpected. The playful language and whimsical rhymes truly embody the childlike wonder you describe. You beautifully express how embracing spontaneity allows your words to "twirl and dance" and your muse to take you to unexpected places. The free spirit of your poem resonates with the accompanying quote, and your closing lines, "entwined thus with the universe / we dance without need to rehearse," create a powerful image of connecting with something larger through unconstrained creativity. This is a delightful and inspiring piece! - Blessings, Daniel Constance La France February 26, 2024 at 6:26 PM Daniel, thank you so much for the wonderful comment, and compliment, blessing, Constance
