This place must be like my kitchen...
whenever I get it all cleaned up, looking almost immaculate...
cuz that's as close as I get,
^

^

it stands there begging me to create
fill each counter with enterprise
fill my eyes with improvise
fill the cupboards to the skies
with cookies, cakes or even pies


and now we have a page
to rage
to fully with our words engage
to open up our life, its stage
and from ourselves to not dissuage
nor keep our thoughts locked in a cage
but place them here for all to see
for it seems to be the place to be

Enjoyed the last stanza...I like it when the words trickle out and down and wrap you around and drown in treackle that freckles smiles from frowns...
