The empty page is before me,
What will I write on it?
So many words within me,
So little time to write.
The first word goes onto the page,
Others follow like a torrent.
The torrent starts to slow,
The words become more meaningful,
And start to make sense.
The wisdom of each word
Starts to appear,
And knowledge is born on the paper.
That knowledge that will lead you,
Lead you into the wisdom of life.
That knowledge so profound
That words will be forming,
Forming within your mind,
So that those words within you
Can be written,
Written on this page.

So true about the importance of words - they can build you up/ knock you down/ fill you with joy or cut like a knife.
Thank you for your fine comment Sue.
And now you've written another fine poem Gold.
Thank you Orchi, I can but try.
the poets lament...
Oh yes.
I knew it... a little bird told me..
Very true, words have such power.
They certainly do Simon, I hope that mine have the power for good.
THANKS UNCLE ANDY ~ Love it when proponents of Classial & Jazz fuse ! Love SMOKE GETS IN YOUR EYES and this is a great interpretation ~ AMEN. Modern Poetry is defined as JUST WORDS ~ ANY WORDS in any order sans rhyme : sans structure : sans grammar and often sans reason ! You are much too organised to be an Ultra Modern Poet ~ SO ~ Your words assemble themselves in to order & rhythm ~ with a soupspooon of punctuation ~ What My Dad would call A Proper Free Verse Poem (and thats a compliment !)
Blessings & Love to both of You ~
BRIAN & ANGELA 🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡
Thank youA and B, to me punctuation is important and I hope that I get it right.
