A long, long time ago before the computer light glow I wrote my words of light prose from simple writing my words flowed. In childish scribble, then teen scrawl, words that cried, words that crawled along the lines, fluid rhyme and with each phrase, I took my time. Now the world’s a different matter, and my computer quickly clatters, words coming too fast, sometimes unclear, so my real words I do not hear. Sometimes new only enhances old, to my talents I should hold on to what is not broken or rusty, a gift we can all share, trust me. So away from your ‘puter, grab a Pen and paper yellow, brown or white lined, and with scribble or scrawl or penmanship fine you will enjoy that much more the words that you rhyme. ------------------ Sunshine Words will always express our feelings true. ~~~ KRJ Look, then, into thine heart, and write ~~~ Henry Wadsworth Longfellow |

I love my computer, but always have paper and pen handy..even in my purse for those odd, waiting moments when my mind is free to wander....you never know when a poem will strike! |

When I write (my books) I type away, and let my fancy flow. But when it's poetry, my heart would show, a pen I grab, oh and paper too. For nothing less can truly show That which is really you! ------------------ ...the things I did not know at first, I learned by doing twice. -Billy Joel |

The other day, I was walking home from work. All of the sudden, my mind started racing. I had to have something to write on, so i grabbed an old receipt and a pen. My sister thought I had lost it. Now, I never leave the house without pen and paper. Even when i'm on the computer, I find myself writing things down on paper. ------------------ One touch of nature makes the whole world kin. -William Shakespeare |

I was at a stop light the other day, writing a poetry line or two on a napkin. I find myself counting beats to poetic phrases in my mind at the oddest times. People think I am so intently working -- and really I am lost in poetry and writing ideas on a scrap of paper before stuffing it in my pocket and moving on with my day. Yep, I love this, Sunshine.
