When
Poetry's something that's unexplainable Where the minds willing the pen is able Just as an author beginning a book With one word an intriguing novel’s struck. Same as a chef cooks up newfound dishes That tempt tastebuds with delicacies Or artists with inspired motivation Painting many a superb creation. Musicians who compose melodic tunes Enhancing enchanted romance to bloom Choreographers who create dance moves Urging folk to put on their dancing shoes. Enthusiastic actors learn their lines So their performances are fine and shine Doctors and nurses with life saving skills Treat and deliver us from hurts and ills. Teachers inspire learning, it’s their purpose Without schooling one’s life would be worthless All sorts of talent and all works of art Are imaginings felt deeply in heart. There is plenty to gain and naught to lose When one is in the mood and finds their muse. 24th April 2023 *+*+* Writing Challenge - 'W' Words - Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Constance La France Word choice - no.2 When
