Tink Tink Tink

tink tink tink, the keys begin to plink.
thoughts begin to fill the air.
i no longer sit and stare.
quieting the rush of silence.
on this nicer side of the fence.

courage just to say a word.
now this brave soul can be heard.
fill the page with inspiration.
take the mind on a vacation.

sharing thoughts with all the world.
layers fall as they're unfurled.
this is what we call a gift.
even if we never shift.

so enjoy the once again.
words that get put down in pen.

this is an enjoyable little poem about sharing your creativity, robert. I think it is getting harder for me to find a poem of yours to read. Glad I finally came upon this older one I had not seen yet!

Well done....thank you for reading and commenting on my works....I want to be great poet but seem to be mediocre or the dreaded average at best. Thanks for your attention.

Dear Robert, You have an infectious way with what you want to say and truly, your keys put out some brilliant thoughts. I am working back through some of your earlier works now and am enjoying all. Thanks so much for your sweet comments - I really appreciate your verses.
