::Poems about how wonderful life is? Yeah, but bring on the anguish as well I say!::
I'm not sure if my poetry (or would be lyrics 'cept I can't play/write music!) is any good or not (and not sure I care either). I have found, though, over the past few weeks an ability to write down how I'm feeling and that the words just come to me quite easily. I have tried before, several times to write but never really been able to express things properly, maybe I didn't persevere, maybe I didn't just do it and be damned, maybe having this Blog has given me an outlet or maybe I just found some poetry in my life that has released the jumble of words in my head.
Whatever I am enjoying it, I find a word or phrase pops into my head and connects with some thought or emotion and I write it down and that?s the starting point. Often the rest follows quite quickly, tho? I normally reflect on the ?finished? article for a while and make a few tweaks here and there. It rarely happens the other way round, I rarely think of a subject and then start to write, tho? I do have many ideas in my head that I want to write about.
Poetry in Blog?s is relatively common (based on my travels so far), there?s a world of people out there finding an outlet and I find it immensely enjoyable happening on beautiful words and ideas. I?m not vain enough (or confident enough) to refer them back to my site just for the poetry but maybe people will start to happen upon it and feel something similar. Maybe there?s a book to be had, Blog Poetry (ideas for title?s welcome, if I could think of a good one I?d enter those competitions requiring a 10 word slogan as a tie-breaker!).
Anyhow anyone happening into these pages I would welcome any feedback you care to give, either in the comments on the home page or via email
I want this feeling
Of connectivity
To last
Eternally
