Quenching a Thirst

Accidental Poet



 

What’s this I sense

Something inside me

Trying to get out

An escape of poetry

 

Words congregating

Eagerly await composure

Rearranging themselves

For eventual exposure

 

Awakened from the depths

Of secret dreams of love

My Muse hard at work

Pushing the boundaries thereof

 

The dance of pen and page

Always pulling at my heart

Until the birth of prose

Comes forth as poetic art

 

Like a baby being born

It knows when the time is right

The journey thus far

Quenching a thirst for life

 

And there upon the page

Proudly it lives

A joy to be read

Certain satisfaction it gives

                The word birth is right. Some come with great and protracted labor, others just drop right out. Some are premature while others are miscarried. A lovely write that I identify with

                  And sometimes they seem to just write themselves. Thank you soren, I appreciate you reaching back for this one. 😉👍
