A beautiful monoku Phyllis for rick's contest, I hope you do well with this poem, now in regards to your blog today about how much we write, well, for me I am always writing, I have a journal I carry with me at all times, it is full of poems and fragments and thoughts and ideas that eventually become poetry.. and like you lots of papers are scattered hither and tither in my nest~~
