An empty poem

They say I'm such, I write too much
My head is full, I just can't stop
But in this verse, I'll just be terse
And leave you null, and let it flop.

Gee Newell, I know the feeling of having a head full of thoughts and just having to get them down on paper.  Then I also know the other way, which is how I have been of late, and the thoughts are there but the words won't come.  A lot said in a few words my friend!  Very well expressed.
~Hugs, Nancy~

~Time has cast a spell on you,
  So you won't ever forget me~

(big hugggssssss) Oh Newell, I can relate to this feeling so well; I always have these beautiful dreams and visions I'm just itching to share so much, but sometimes the words don't come out the way I want them too so I just simplify them to be true to how I feel! (sigh) This is a wonderful poem, sweet friend, your words are always a delight to read, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Newell, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Liked the rhyme scheme to this one.  Sometimes saying nothing, can say so much.  Nicely done.

*giggling* silly man...don't you know that nothing you write can flop...LOL this poem is wonderful and I want to say something else...just let those words flow..it doesn't matter how much you write as long as you are writing the words that pour out of your heart and you, dear man, do just that. **big hugs**

Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams.
