The Magic of Writing

Writing is freedom An escape from this chaotic world Your pen gliding across the paper Each perfect word carefully chosen Magical thoughts appearing in your mind Your hand aching- but not caring The pen halting to a stop Your eyes moving back and forth rereading your masterpiece A sweet taste consumes your mouth as you say, “Man that’s good” Deciding no more revisions will do you justice You stow it away in a journal for only your eyes to read.

I am stopping back today to see if you have continued to write and post new poetry Brooke. I hope that you will continue with your writing. You have taken the first step~ ~to write and share. When you feel the need for inspiration read some of the other poetry here at PoetrySoup. It will help you. Love, Carol

Agree with you: "Writing is freedom" I am just a "hobby poet" and do it my way, with my pen. - oxox Anne-Lise
