i hit a dry spell for a couple of months with no inspiration or writing done at all hahaha here's a little something that'll hopefully get the ball rolling....it's just a small poem about air or breathing or whatever hehe... hope you enjoy it!
------------------------------------------
A Ghost, looking at a Ghost,
I can't see what they see
But I know what I know

And Plants, taking in what most Ghosts can't,
I couldn't fit in their shoes
But I went where I went

I can't see what they'd want with me
Since I fell, I can't tell if I'm them or me

Was that a Ghost?

From a window, to a door I just couldn't get into,
I plant my seeds pretty well
And I hang ten 'till they grow

And breath, soaking up what Plants need less,
Like a Ghost appears and recedes
Can you tell me which suits me best?

Well, it's crazy, but I like it! We owe the plants so much, so what suits you best (and all of us) is gratitude.

My own interpretation ...

Love,
Margherita

Excellent poem i enjoyed reading it,
We should take more care of our world before it becomes just a ghost in the wind...
