the writer virginia salter she picks up letters same alphabet I use handles them, playfully, tosses them in air bounces them off thoughts catching them on quill feathers then gently weaves her magic as words filled with energy love caresses flow onto papyrus weeping laughing shouting singing how does she do it sifting the very same letters available to all © September 29, 2001 [This message has been edited by VAS (edited 09-30-2001).] |

Makes you wonder, doesn't it? We all do it to an extent though. Sit in front of a screen and make something appear out of nothing. Still amazes me at times though! Nice thoughts.  All writing comes |

I ask that question a lot myself, and I am asking it right now well done!~Better to write for yourself and have no public, than to write for the public and have no self~ Cyril Connolly |

I think you've done it quite well yourself. If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please? |

Vicky~ Good question! ...and I have no idea it still surprises me every time I complete a poem....I often wonder where it came from. Nicely penned It's worth pondering...*Hugs* ~Krista  Your beautiful words & creativity allow me to connect with the same in myself. |

Thanks all for reading and your comments. I think as writers, we all feel this sometimes that the 'other' writers just somehow manipulate those same letters in profound and amazing ways. Guess I've been away quite awhile, as this board goes, been missing a lot and I have a new name, but really I'm still Virginia. I think I've not been putting my real name on my poems lately, so I'll go back to doing so. Virginia |
