Write Now!

I sit and stare at empty page my mind a big black hole my pencil sharp and at the ready as if I’ve no control then words begin to form my pencil flits and flies and rhyming words, oh how my mind is really tried It kind of makes my head rush I do not want to brag but writing never seemed more fun than in the days of “poetry tag” When poets gathered in a room a topic then was given the poet pounded out a poem like they were truely driven I miss those days of poetry tag inspiration came to me on fairy wings and moon beams hearts bared for all to see Fot Matt's Write now contest started at 7:22pm and finished at 7:33pm on August 20 2008 I write long hand.... :-)

It seems obstacles are part of any process even writing.. is it so that we appreciate the journey or simply to infuriate us? Thank you for sharing and for your comments. God Bless, Dima

Trudy this is a gem - I miss the tag days also - I actually tried to get them going again but I guess it just didn't take hold - I've been so busy I have had very little time to be on the site which does break my heart I just love it here - Hopefully things will fall into a routine soon and I'll have more time - God Bless, MJ
