But no! he doesn't want to hear from me. I'm walking west on...

A thousand thoughts rise up like waves, But only ink knows how to save I am the grief that learns to sing, The silent hope that blooms in spring And when the final words are free, The page will hold what eyes...

A day without poetry is like a sky without stars, an ocean without waves, A symphony without sounds floating in the twilight of silence, A moment where time stops and shadows dance without rhythm, You lose the chance to dive into the depths of emotions that flow like rivers, Where each verse is a thread of light guiding you...

Writing poetry is in my blood It's a fairly recent thing Only been writing for about ten years It's sure made my idle heart sing Before I began I stumbled around Lost my direction in life Discovered my poetry wasn't too bad Tried it out on my wife She encouraged me to pursue it further Soon realized it WAS for me My passion has been...
