Like wine spilled across the table Words poured from my fingertips A stream of emotion and images Flowed to drip key-by-key onto the page Intoxicated by inspiration, I wrote Creativity, inebriated, wove out of control Fingers beat a tattoo of tap-tap-tapping And clicked steadily, heady with power I sat back and watched with a bemused smile Then gave them their day to shine.

A good read, absolutely positively a good read. I especially enjoyed this piece because as a guitarist, my vocal talents are judged by the measure of skill in my fingers, not my voice. So to read something like this, I feel the same way. Thank you for this fine read, and sling a comment for my Ameteur work if ya' dun' mind =) Cheers. |

I believe this ‘write’ finely captures what the act of creation of ‘poetry’ does to/for many (most?!) of us! I especially LOVED: “Like wine spilled across the table Words poured from my fingertips” I am quite glad you “gave them their day to shine(!)” once again (as so often) I am quite impressed by this author! long-sustained applause!! |
