Sometimes my writing
hits a wall,
can't move forward,
no words at all.
And then I look
more carefully
between each stone--
fertility.
A pebble, a vine
growing there
even grass and ferns
sway in the air.
At the wall
there is much to see
if I just wait
patiently.
What do you do when you can't think of anything to write? I look out my window and watch. For your poetry challenge for today, stand at a window and look out. What do you see? Can you write about that? Have fun writing.
You can observe a lot by watching. Yogi Berra
I love your use of "fertility." This is a lovely photo and poem! Inspirational too!
ReplyDeleteGlad you enjoyed the ink and water color. I did have fun with this one. I wasn't certain about using fertility in a children's poem, but it wanted to be there, so it is.
