However it comes to you, it is "Voila" a great poem. I think it flows through you all of the time. Struggling is more my style.

But sometimes the wings say WTF (Where To Fly) and the scribbling begins...

So true! Some I shape up for days…others come together nicely.

It is amazing how they fling themselves into our laps.

I wish I could do all of that! I have to turn on my brain and think about what to write and sometimes, all-too-often, there isn't anything there! Also, I get a lot of false starts that go nowhere. Writing seems to come very easy for you, and I envy that. I love to write, but it is not so easy for me, even after all these years!

I sit with a dictionary on my lap and flip until I find a word i LOVE.
