~Writer~

Sitting in a place
Of warm solitude
I write in my journal
Hoping no one will intrude

I play some music
Maybe loud rock n’roll
Maybe sounds of nature
To soothe my soul

I set down all my
Thoughts and poses
Things of forget-me-nots
And wild roses

I can look back to see
Where I have been
To see where I am going
I just release my pen

My thoughts run wild
Or down a charted course
Dreams of childhood
Hopes for a horse

The birth of my children
The breakup of marriage
Slow dancing
Rides in a carriage

When I am done
I will lock away this book
Hoping no one finds it
No one takes a look

My private
Thoughts and poses
Forget-me-nots
And roses.

Foundations that lasted the ages Then ripped apart at their roots"

Oh this is wonderful!
I too have one of those journals (LOL well actually more than one!) maybe after I am dead....my children can read them and know their Mom unbound by life's conditions and rules...ohh on second thought maybe I don't want them to know! *wink*
Great poem girl!

wonderfully written    
writing down life as it happens, reading it as it was, thinking in ink on what will be...
everyone should have their private escape!
i truly love this
