Write me a poem
Go on try your hand
Throw words on a page
See what shape they take
Do they make sense
Will they touch me
Set me on fire
Repulse me
Love me
Take me to your heart
Send me far away.
You have a gift
I wish I could do what you do
I wonder why I don’t
Can’t
Wont.
You are you,
You make words I cannot make
Your words sing
Where mine stammer
Your words are magic
Where mine fumble
lost in the dark
Stumbling forward.
Your words attract thousands
Mine single figures.
If you like
Say my name
I am happy.

Michael…Michael…Michael 🙂 x
Thanks you Jenny, you know how to make me blush….
– seriously enjoyed this one – and you know I couldn’t help it…
know the song ‘say my name – say my name’ ?
🙂
Ahhh..no can’t place it….hum it see I know it then…
At first I thought you were speaking to someone who never writes….lovely poem.
Thanks Anja, more a challenge to someone who does. Glad you liked it.
Wonderful Michael =)
Thank you Yves.
Wonderful!! You are too hard on yourself though – your writing is lovely! 🙂 🙂
Well – I’m a fan! 🙂
Roses are red
Violets are blue
Michael, Michael, Michael!
Thank you RoSy. I’m am very touched.
Helen is right- you are way too tough on yourself. Your writing is wonderful, Michael; don’t sell yourself short. 🙂
Thank you Jen, that’s a lovely comment to make. I will be easier in future.
😀
I am glad to hear that!
This is a good poem Michael! You should not be so critical of yourself.
Thanks Gabriella, I will have to reassess myself, a few people are saying the same thing…..maybe in hindsight it wasn’t the best comparison to use.
