The Brain is Unplugged Where have all the little words gone? For that matter, the big ones went along, here, at a time, when the poetry was smug, and now, at a loss, my brain is unplugged. Once, when the words loosed themselves freely poems ranged from anger to good touchy-feely, and then when I thought there was more to tell the words done dried up like a forgotten old well. Now I’m searching, doing anything for inspiration looking for that elusive, wide range sensation wanting nothing more but to spark some creation anything simple ~ not looking to rock the nation. Where have all the little rhyming words gone? Probably sleeping in a baby’s lullaby song, somewhere out riding on the Kansas wind high, mayhap the words are biding in my lover’s sigh. ©KRJ 5 September, 1999 ------------------ Sunshine Words will always express our feelings true. ~~~ KRJ Look, then, into thine heart, and write ~~~ Henry Wadsworth Longfellow |

The words are floating everywhere They gently sail through the air. Open your ears and, of course, your mind And harvest what there is to find. |

My dear - I know that feeling all too well! Hey - if you can write a poem about NOT being able to write I don't think you need to worry! - and a great poem it is too. |
