Singing a New Song — CPC “The Magic of Poetry”

Singing a New Song

Stark white the page
in front of me,
empty spaces
begging for words
and company;
words tumbling about
in these corners of thought,
mazes of ideas
searching for direction,
fumbling for expression.

And a melody
begins to find its way,
slipping quietly
into the chambers
of my heart,
images knocking
upon the windows
of my imagination,
the words beginning
to flow from a place
deep within,
hidden away
and secret still.

Flowing slowly at first,
the words finally sing
a new song as they dance
across the once empty page,
bringing a smile to my heart
and expression to my soul.

    I loved this one, Barbara. Hopefully they will do some upgrades on the blog pages here soon and let us do what we did on the old myspace. I do miss so the old blogs, don’t you?

    That is all that words are – a combination of characters that dance on an empty page… Enjoyed the dance Barbara. 🙂
