Blank verses

Like an empty canvas

Stares at me

Relentlessly

Insisting me

To create

Some kind of art

Of hate

Or love

Of joy

Or despair

An art in which

I have lost touch…

  1. Once you begin again, it will start to flow. The trick is to put pen to paper--or fingers to keyboard. This is a good beginning; now we are all waiting for more.


  2. Not your greatest, but it does tell the story of how hard it is to get back into the swing of things after not writing for a while.

  3. Blank verses,

    yes,

    but the soul,

    longing to create,

    still held,

    gently,

    by a muse

    who fears loss

    as much as

    the poet.

    Reach out,

    you will find

    there are others,

    take my hand,

    I will do

    what I can,

    and whisper,

    "Welcome back,

    you have

    been missed."

  4. Agree completely with Biscuits!  And you've not lost your touch!

  5. Blank verses are not always blank, nor the passion of art so easily rested. Drive on, art is touching you,

  6. I really like it and certainly I did relate to this piece of poetry! I believe that I have read one other from you and my memory serves me it was a McDreamy one! As far as this being better or not better- I just plain liked it and felt it was very appropriate since you have been in a state of not writting or maybe a block of some kind, I thought it was well done! Cheers!!

  7. Very....interesting! I think that maybe it could be a bit better. But no one is perfect in any way. So maybe it's just that its too. . .childish? But of course, I could not write anything better.  

  8. shake your head

    up and down.

    spin the body

    clear a round.

    dump some salt

    on Uncle Jack,

    bend your elbows

    forward back.

    now your ready

    Damsel McD

    your poems await

    in the just-do-it tree.

    lol
