My poems are just doodlewords,
They don't take long to write.
I observe the world around me,
By ear, by nose or sight.
By then my brain has started,
To note a line or two.
They quickly jump onto the screen,
To draft something that's new.
They come so quickly to me,
It never takes that long.
Thank god Opuss is with me,
So I can share my song.
Some people sketch a little shape,
When brains have gone on strike.
I just do some doodlewords,
And hope that you will "like".

It's late at night. But I had an urge to write. Sometimes I get these itches. Ripping me like broken stitches. So I make a rhyme. To past the time. Or because words start to flow.
#movement. ambling along. writing a song. a poem or a line. feeling fine. no need to rush. or speed as such. just up with the birds. choosing my words. i'll take my time. when i write a rhyme.
The brush, The canvas, Me. It's all, I want it, To be. The paint, The design, And I. The strokes, All perfect, To my eye. The pallet, The easel, The painter. The work, Getting darker; Getting fainter.
They say to write a poem you must always use your mind. So why do words just come to me when my mind is left behind. I go to sleep, or so I think, and then they rush inside my head.
It doesn't matter. What ranking I am. What matters the most. I've done the best that I can. I like writing my jibber. Creating new stuff. If you don't like them. I guess it is tough.
Reacting on an emotion, And writing it on paper, Focusing on the moment, And ripping it apart, Studying thoughts in my head, For the words I once said, Finding the answer, In the deepest...
The plot is not always perfection, The words not quite polished to glow, Some headed in backwards direction, But, sometimes, a flaw needs to show, Not all writes can shine as a diamond, Immortalised...
When I write on Opuss, I write to be heard, Not to become first... Or second... Or third. Yes, that's a challenge, But not a single aim, It ruins every prospect, Of the word-fuelled game.
Nice, simple and funny! Good job. :) I'm kinda new to Opuss, please check out my poems, if you wish. <3
@Eveline thank you! Already read some of your stuff and liked it. Very impressed! And welcome aboard!
I'm not certain that the content is 'heavy' enough, as such - but your feel for rhythm and syllable length has such a Midas touch! J x
@Stablish thanks - I've been reading your posts from the first day - always impressed with your writing. Thanks for the repost and the follow.
