You'll often find us deep in thought, Lost in wonder, more often that not. Buried in a book, sitting by the side, Or talking to ourselves, we don't have much pride.
Well done everyone, there are some great entries once again. Ok there can only be one winner....... Third place goes to.....
Well, a bit of a let down, but that comes with setting a short deadline. From what my Opuss tells me I only have two entries, so it might be glitchy, but it might not.
I have a dream.... Ok it's not exactly Luther King material but I keep getting the urge to write a poem using words that are placed on to a scrabble or Words with friends board.

After writing 'The last forest' and at the suggestion of @smellyfingers. I'm putting this idea forward for a challenge but a non competitive one, just something to inspire maybe.

Hi. First of all, I want to thank @PIRGIR for picking my poem. So, without further hesitation, the word is..... TEDDY BEAR. Sorry if this has been done before. This is my first time judging.
A splash of inspiration, Can come in any guise, Here on Opuss, what we do, Is share life through our eyes.

Sorry it's a bit late, but here we go.... Lots of lovely entries for this one.
Writer's Block is so frustrating; It always happens when an idea is culminating. Every time you're about to pick up your pen, You're distancing yourself further from your plentiful zen.
