Words are puzzles
tentative strokes
beginning
a flurry
a flourish
a finality
if only.
edit
rewrite.
a shape emerges
random ideas
contained in
clumsy letters.
A meaning
to the mind
who conjures.
I struggle to extract meanings
that contain truth.
hidden within my words
amongst the crudely
stated imagery
is my treasured
truth of all truths
the one I cannot escape
me.
Very true of the art of writing I think, one we can all relate to!! 🙂 🙂
Thanks Helen. Its like I often see the puzzle and have to play with the words to shape them into something of sense.
I love your take on words. Brilliant.
Thanks Deana that’s a very encouraging comment.
Whatever flows…
🙂
Thanks RoSy, always good to see your comments.
Ha..Love it…except that whole “edit” word 🙂
I did think of you when I wrote that word but its something I HAVE to do!!
I do the same – the jig-saw puzzle..trying to make them fit…tis a tough life being a writer at times. Liked this M.
Thanks Jenny, its a hard grind as well some days.
I’m with ‘ya there
