Should I write because it's the only craft I know?
Should I write every time I feel high or low?
Should I take every single emerging thought
design it prettily and with a pen soon jot?
Should I be inspired by everything I see?
Should everything mean the world to me?
That more poems like these I write away?!
Oh much better and less contrived I pray!
...... after a long hiatus..... I hope to write more often..... Poetry gives me something that nothing else and no one else gives me.... an ability to make myself happy...... but does that mean I should always write?
Where inspiration I find
My words I somehow lose
I also sometimes lose my mind
A situation that never ceases to amuse
I tear up my numerous digital pages
And save many drafts
Poems in many stages
trial and errors of my craft!
there we go two in one. Ek ke saath ek mufth mufth mufth!
