Streams of thoughts stay within
Loaded pen waiting to pour on paper thin
The words, the prose and the verse
Standstill, my poetic universe
Crumpled papers and the littered floor
Jammed for the time being, my intellect's door
Deliberate attempts don't help the flow
Worries of depletion in my mind grow
No signs of rain or the rainbow
At times, I am
A hapless poet on poetic plateau
Niks never fear the mind needs rest at times soon the parachute will open again
Very much common with writers as Sandra has said....imagine an old lady of too home oriented...with no knowledge of outside world... with no high literary knowledge in english...daring to write poetry under sudden circumstances....that is me learning every new word just to forget the next moment...due to household pressure...and aging difficulties...wish you good luck...you will succeed
This is what the ladies call 'cute'. If your 'block' is so good, then one can imagine how good your flow is....very well expressed.......10 from me.
Oh yes, add me to the collection of poets who can identify! Writing isn't always easy but when it's in your blood you just have to do it. Loved your poem, Nikunj! '10! ' Warm Wishes, Marilyn
I can relate to this poem, as most poets would. Creativity is not always forthcoming but I try to believe it will come again, and eventually it does. I just listen for a word said by someone or remember something from another time. This is very well written Nikunj. 10 love Karin
to be a poet is a difficult task....okey..this is it.... writing is an art, isn't it? so making poetry is an art too...agree? oh, , , this one, , hope u will not disagree....to be hapless isn't it an art? hhehhehehehe...lavs this dear friend...kisses
Writing about that which is experienced by others, brings you closer together with everyone. There is an understanding here that is related too. You are really getting in touch with what works. Nice job! You must be taking you work very seriously, it is really showing in your writing. :) Deborah Cromer
In this matter, you've got company from PH members.... Cheers. Subroto
