All around me

All around me

All around me are familiar words and places.

Feelings seep into my fingers, guiding me all the time.

Do I write of things I never knew, or emotions never felt?

Do I let the muse take control to write the pages of my life?

Could a word or phrase never before known, 

lead me to where I am now?

Could a smile or a look write an epic poem,

that becomes the writers Mistress?

Answers to these are exposed and revealed,

in the words I set on paper.

Sometimes I write about things I know and sometimes I write what my muse says I should.As long as you write from the heart it is poetry:)

All that is around us is a part of us and that part of us becomes that which we share with others. We set the words on paper as a revelation of how we interpret that which is part of our life - the dreams, the experiences, the disappointments, the all of all becomes that which flows from our pen to the paper. I like your questions and think of how a smile or a look may inspire one to write an epic poem that becomes the writers Mistress! That thought alone could become volumes of expression!!

We are the words that we write, the experiences we go through and the emotions felt by looking into the eyes of another. We are poetry....xo ;)

I think this is about how writing helps you find a sense of yourself and how the world around you is just waiting to be described through words. Enjoyed!

[ron]

Thank you Louvegrise14. Yes it is. I think anyone who writes finds this out. Those who don't sometimes do not know what goes into writing.

I think that everything in this world could be made into a poem, all it takes is a little imagination! :) I enjoyed reading this one Ron.
