This is something that I was sitting here working on. Any feedback would be gladly appreciated. _____________________ Here I sit...alone... Just me, a pen, some paper, and a million unbridled thoughts. What shall I write about? Old friends...lost loves...good times. Or maybe passion...intrigue...betrayal. I can tell a tale of most anything when it's just me, a pen, and some paper. I could tell of the time I travelled the high seas and met up with some pirates who had their way with me. I might share the time I fell in love with a man who only knew how to leave 'em. Oh, the pain that brought, the lessons it taught. But, we'll save that story for another day. Yes, I love quiet evenings like this. Where I can sit in solitude and reminisce. And suddenly it occurs to me that I am not alone. As long as I have a pen...some paper... and a million unbridled thoughts. "That man has shown himself great who has never grieved in evil days and never bewailed his destiny." --Seneca |

Ramblings of a true poet.....and so true. That's why writers are blessed....with our imaginations we are never truly alone. I enjoy this one very much |

TA... So true.....you are never alone as long as the thoughts keep coming. You can go a million places with anyone you choose as long as you have that pen and paper. Nice poem!! I enjoyed it!!

Kit -- "A true poet"...Ah, the highest of compliments. Thank You! Balladeer -- Most of my poems are just that...ramblings. Some I toss...Some I keep...but all caused...by a lack of sleep! Tonite is gonna be one of those sleepless nights I can tell. JM -- I am so glad that you enjoyed it. I do so find courage and comfort in my writing. Lone Wolf -- Pen and paper are the most magical things a poet can have. Thank you for reading my work!

Tennessee, I missed this one, so I hope you don't mind that I've brought it back up for a re-read! What we writers are plagued with...don't you agree! LOL!

Sunshine -- Thank you so much for bringing this back to the top. This is one of my favorites because I was able to ramble on and on and call it poetry. lol I am glad that you enjoyed it.Terry -- What a lovely response. Thank you so much! I hope you will read more of my work. Marge -- My fellow rambler. If I couldn't ramble in the midnight hours, I believe my muse and I would slowly go insane. --You can either take me as I am...or you can watch me as I go.-- |
