Writing Is Fun

I wrote this one for fun I think
the last one was orange and pink
a third poem is dancing inside my head
I should capture it and go to bed

imagination is playing with me
laughing at my mirth and glee
giving me ideas that won’t go away
so I have to stay up and do more play

writing to me is an instant thing
words ping onto a page with sling and zing
I wrote this one almost in my sleep
writing is fun, as words prance and creep

they won’t leave me alone until on a page
I throw them down violently sometimes in a rage
my muse is very much in charge of me
giving me ideas with mirth and glee.

I love the way your poem graphically pictures the CK we all know and love writing 'as if her life depends on it' --- 'cos maybe it does!

I have to admit I have no idea who I would be if I stopped playing, writing, and painting. I will be 71 the last day of May and I signed my contract at school the instant I saw it, never thinking "Hey, you are OLD!" because I doubt it in so many ways.
