Differing Words.

Goldfinch60



The blank page sits in front of me,

The words in my mind drop onto it

And create something for others to read.

It may be good,

It may be bad,

But those words have left my mind

Clearing it for others to come.

They may be words of happiness,

They may be words of sadness,

But each time the page is filled

The words will be different,

Different from the words once written.

      The evil and destruction going on today in Ukraine has zapped my creativity for the time being.
      Although arguments took place within the animals as to which member wrote house of the rising sun there were much older versions of it floating around long before the 60's UK blues revival movement.

        I can understand your feelings d a, it is appalling what is happening in Ukraine.

        It is still a great piece of music no matter who wrote it, we have sung it in the Choir which was great.

          I love the symbolism of this poem, I can visualize each drop forming a word. The constant churning of thoughts, so much to share, so much to write.

          • Goldfinch60

            Thank you Bella, yes there is much to share in life.
