Wordless

During a season of writer's block,
my pencil idly lays...
My notebook rests untouched on
my desk for days...

Whenever I receive a message
I don't know what to say in reply,
Frustrated with a loss for words,
Tears start to well up in my eyes.

Where is that key
to unlock the words?

Hang in there, Riley, it happens to all of us. Just write when it comes to you, my friend. Bill

oh, I understand and appreciate that struggle. It's mind boggling and unnerving. When words don't come, I, too, weep. hugs, Sara
