Elysium

Letters my love, 

my place, 

a daily relax,

an escape,

twenty six friends gather,

everyday they surround in

  different number, 

combinations, showing 

  shapes, colours, shades.

 

How will they 

  play today?

what weavings,

what meanings, 

what stories,

what memories?

always something 

  to say.

 

I live for words; 

to express,

to convey 

  changing moods,

speaking all

  'languages',

sometimes meanings 

  hidden.  

my heart and soul 

  expressing, raging, 

flowings of me.

 

my mind always thinking

the next thought,

the next line,

the next title

 

Words, not as they 

  once were, but 

  still of me,

love, desire still mingle, 

thoughts still flow,

writing a life.

 

I want to write 

I need to write 

to convey a life 

to write out angst

to get perspective 

  on a life lived. 

 

What will I write, 

what will be my path?

Words swirl and dance 

  in different formation,

in flurry of hand,

a kaleidoscope of 

  colours, shades.

Good morning from across the world…
I love the title Love letters as it brings back the very old movie by the same title with Joseph Cotten… such a wonderful movie…
I enjoyed the read while sitting close to the sea this morning. I understand the desire to write. To get our thoughts, memories, etc. down onto paper. In hopes of finding ourselves…
Thank you for sharing your thoughts.
I wrote a little poem called Thoughts which you might like… it is probably was done my list as it was one of the first I posted.

So easy to get hooked on writing... I have written for years but I only just started posting... Y+TYPO what I meant is that it is probably DOWN my list of poems not done my list... typing way too fast.
