THE WRITER.

The elder poet

They say a writer write so well .

When times are really sad.

It seems the reason for it .

Is because he is so sad.

 

Riches lost. Or a love is gone.

Or the passing of a friend.

Of songs once heard. Or hands once held.

Or returning of a ring.

 

Or lips that never touched .

Or lovers never gone too far.

Or never gone at all.

Like children walking for the first time . 

 

You know that they must fall.

I'm not one such writer. But I try to do it well.

I try to live my life each day as though it wasn't hell.

      Yes writers can present notions better than any other way as with pen alone they can make known the tragic and happy that happens to everyone. A fine write e.p.
