Pregnant and impregnated with thoughts I'm still, incubating words to shape a poem. Many were formed but were aborted. Had no content and no feelings.
I hope soon the hour will come, glorious light will shine, and the pain will succumb to brightness and finally I will give birth.

It's twins you have
Deep
Many different layers nicely done 😊
Thanks for reading. I think I truly have a lot inside but sometimes they just are not worth of sharing.
A fine write. My only 'abort' was that I pressed the wrong button after typing out a whole poem that I was about to upload. doh! lol.
It happens sometimes. Luckily you covered with this awesome one. Thanks
Quite a little special and love the last few words which serve the poem so well.
Thanks Michael. When the poem don't want to be born we kind of have to bring it anyway.
Thank you dear Santita. Lovely comments
Writer's block laid out in so much good imagery -and with such feeling I to which I too relate dear Malu - a great read.
Thanks Fay, this comments coming from you is a blessing.
Great metaphor here, Malu. Even though we guys obviously do not have the real experience of birthing, we do go through these motions as well when writing. I really like this poem.
Thanks Fred. I believe that essentially we all are feminine and masculine, therefore we all have an uterus. We then can give birth.
Great artists always make a comeback, that's how champions win and I have no doubt with your poetry skills you will remain at the top.
Thank you my friend. Your generous words are thrilling and resonates inside my heart. I will always try my best to do so.
I CAN EMPATHISE MALU ! So many of the POEMS in my Head & Heart abort before I can get them onto paper or the PC ! But those that go "full term" I share and thanks for all your loving comments it make the pain of Poetic Pregnancy & Poetic Birth worthwhile. Thinking of you ~ Hugs in the Spirit ~ BRIAN
You seem to have already given birth. clever write.
Thank you GF. Yes, this one was bought out by force.
In a playful mood my mind invites me to reflect upon what has led to this pregnancy..... oooh. Seriously tho, lately my life has been in knots and i have had scant desire to write, yesterday and day before i didn't need to compose i looked at the mps homepage, glanced out of the window and before i knew it i had published my thoughts of that moment. My writers block comes when i can't polish something. i'll put it away and leave it to nag me on my desktop. Today i have so many mixed feelings about several subjects that i may miss the deadline. I've got a serious dose of the blues and feel like breaking my diet and stuffing myself with cake etc, not writing at all.
Oh my friend! I totally understand. If I was close to you I would go to the cake place with you and we could share a brownie Or better yet we could bake a cake together. I know, I know, life is not easy. Then comes the mood changing. If I eat the cake I then have an urge to take the road and run. 120 pds is where I feel comfortable. But, hey, eat your cake, cry your tears, shut the door and recluse yourself. We have the right to suffer in peace sometimes. Don't be too strong. Sending you hugs 🤗
Thank you dear poetic friend. Breaking my diet would deepen my blues and lessen my self esteem. I'll compromise and work for my sunny tomorrow for i'm determined i shall have one. Positive thinker u see. However, i used to love baking cakes, many moons ago my wife taught me and we would have competitions..
