Ettie Christian-Bowling Poet Rhyme

Valley of Struggle

There is a point in time,
Where inspiration and guidance is hard to find. 
When the words dont seem to make the right rhyme,
At this point in the poets work she can choose to define.
In hopes that she can point out a certain sign,
Searching deep within herself,
To grasp,a unfound wealth.
Coming forth like flowing waters,
Words of new meaning without falter.
Out of the valley of struggle,
She walks forth,
No longer a sluggard.

A.E. Rivenbark June 1, 2014 at 9:37 PM Been struggling with a bit of writer's block, and this poem nailed that feeling for me. We all want to write something new and to be creative, but its hard to get that ball rolling at times. Excellent write. Ettie Christian-Bowling June 5, 2014 at 11:23 AM thank you darling that was the reason I wrote this poem bc I was having writers block as well thank you for your comments

Carol Eastman June 1, 2014 at 10:04 AM A good write... I wrote one somewhat like it called 'Cascading Words'. I have started my first contest called 'Fathers Day'. I'm not about to be a perfectionist... it's for fun... Don't tell everyone... but if I can figure out the judging process... everyone who enters will get a 1st place... If it's possible... Ettie Christian-Bowling June 1, 2014 at 7:41 PM Sounds like a cool contest I might go check it out.....thank you for comment on this poem it means much my dear-Love Ettie Carol Eastman June 1, 2014 at 10:05 AM Topics and inspiration can be hard to find... but they're there within us waiting to be triggered and dug out.
