Why is it that I can sit and write these words?
They seem to just come into my mind,
And I need to put them on paper.
Some maybe good,
Some are bad ,
But the urge to get them written
Is a force that I cannot fight.
They can be funny.
They can be sad.
They can be angry.
All emotions are shown,
The strongest one is of course love.
The emotive ones are best;
To put emotion onto the page
Comes to me with absolute ease.
Writing poetry is a release
Into a different world,
Where some troubles are forgotten,
And others are written here.

So true that’s a writer’s blessing or a habit that cannot be done away with…giving words to those coloured emotions
And I truly resonate with your lines
“ Writing poetry is a release

Thank you for your kind words spilleronsheet.

I think you have an admirable clarity of thought to be able to write each day as you do.
For me a confusion of thought will often stop me until suchtime as i am nudged into clarity probably by some happenstance.
Thank you d a, it is just something I do, sometimes it is harder than others but I can usually come up with something.

Yes Andy, for some writing poetry is much like breathing. It just comes out and we feel better for letting it out.
And the music and words from the Moody Blues always a joy to hear. Write on my friend. 😉
Thank you AP, very true.
Yes the Moody Blues are always a joy to hear.

Troubles to be forgotten and others to be kept. We write because we have to. This is a powerful read. Thanks for sharing your poetry.
Thank you crypticbard, most kind.
