Well written, Holly! I find writing therapeutic! But other times frustrating./|\

we write for many reasons Holly, what I do know is I'd never have got through the last 3 difficult years if I hadn't picked up my pen on the day my hubby had cancer surgery:-) hugs Jan xx

Hugs Jan. I picked up my pen when I was done with an abusive relationship. Even before I left. I started writing. And never looked back..except to heal.

Thanks Chris. There are so many more reasons to write poetry, but these are mine for the time being.
