they call to me

They call to me
These poems
Lost minstrels
Singing in a silent
Wilderness
A sunrise
Gently awakening
A forest
Soft rain
Tickling flowers
Fall winds
Whispering
In the pines
Chipmunks
A moonlight kiss
Remembered
The circles
Of a lazy hawk
The scent
Of her pillow
The angst
Of a sorrow
Recalling a tear
These words
These poems
Calling me
To the keyboard
Enticing me
To write
These poems

The words are like sirens. They evoke our emotional state. They wake us from task oriented and take us away as we relate. I know of what you speak. That the poems are so alluring. Nice to meet you. Love this poem!

Words are the friend of a poet. I enjoy this introspective view of crafting poems.

They call to me too, John. Hey, why am I paying double for my 'keyboard timeshare' anyway?!

Hello John, It is a beautiful ode to the allure of poetry. How you personify poems as ‘lost minstrels’ and describe their call is deeply moving. Your poetic imagery - from the ‘sunrise gently awakening a forest’ to the ‘moonlight kiss remembered’ - creates captivating emotions. It’s clear that your poems are not just words but a powerful call that draws you to the keyboard. Keep writing my friend, your words are truly inspiring! - Blessings, Daniel
