Undirected

My hand, with pen, it writes in script Before my mind so guides The words come out, they are so formed They pour from deep inside The subject matter, matters not For it will all make sense As half way through I’ll read aloud To see just where I went At that point then, I will decide On where this write should go But, until I reach completion then My mind won’t even know

Yes.....you have captured the writing of poetry like magic...it just comes from somewhere you never expect...I think that's what is so satisfying about being a poet, even the most simple poem comes as a surprise when completed. This one hit home! :) Carrie

Your poem describes what I sometimes do when writing a poem....I have no subject in mind, but as soon as i begin writing words... they become sewn together forming a wonderfull subject~story~ nicely written...Sara...
