I Am Not Dead

I am not dead
Just gone away
Like a vacation
I'm back to stay

Until I get tired
And take some time off
To get myself together
To get rid of this cough

I have not passed away
I haven't been found dying
I've been on leave, so to speak,
And the poetry's been trying

Trying to find its voice
Trying to find its flavour
So that a reader will enjoy the work
And its theme, they can savor

I am not dead
Just gone away
Like the common cold, I'm back

Gone are the days. The mystical ways my mind would play. The inspiration I would find from a topic on my mind. The kind way my brain would relay a message. The relationship of a related heritage.

Write For Love

What is this about, What does this mean. I'm quite unsure, If it's being seen. What is the purpose, Of this quick rhyme. Is it to prosper, To live for a long time. Am I writing, For likes or love.

True Beauty

Beauty is more than the delicate Rose. It is the Earth and the rain. From which beauty grows. Tangled roots may not please the eye. But surely without them. The flower would die.

Poetry Bouquet

When I write poetry, you know, I start with a feeling in mind. Or maybe a picture in need of description... Or a situation to undermine. And it'd from these the words grow.

Until Next Time

I'm popping off for a little while To have a rest and revive my style, My little head is really bare Like Hubbard's cupboard there's nothing there.
