Today’s poem

I often feel the urge to write, To use my pen or pencil’s might, To put my thoughts into a rhyme That will maybe stand the test of time.

I often lose myself within a book, I’d rather read than clean and cook, I sometimes find that I can see A written word’s bold imagery.

If another person’s written thought Has my own imagination caught It makes me think someone could be Inspired by verses penned by me.

Acclamation is quite rare So if my words inspire someone, somewhere, I must be content to never know Yet keep writing because I love it so.

L.M. Wadlow, Redditch, Worcs.
