It Is Not Really Hard To Write... Poem by RIC BASTASA

is it really hard to write?
no, no, no, it is easy, it is
very easy, since all that
you have to do is just to
remember and you keep
on writing as you keep
remembering and you filter
most of all those that you
keep on writing, and i
know, most of it was pain.

perhaps there is a time
for change, perhaps when
you change too, just like the
weather from winter to spring
from sorrow to joy, and you
must adjust, love life more,
shed off grief, and learn
to dance with the wind and
bath under the rain and
run and run as though you
were a child of the blue sky
the favored creature of
the moon and the stars.
