On Poetry

 

There are times when I’m excited for a challenge, weekly

However, this week‘s is poetry

which is scary

Poetry is not my strongest ability

It could drive me crazy

All because I have horrible vocabulary

 

 

What should I write in a poetry, really?

What kind of originality?

What type of novelty?

 

 

I tried to do something very recently

Have you seen my post on Fifty?

That was quite a hard work entirely

and it comes from my heart, sincerely

 

 

I commend people who can create an anthology

Where do they find the energy?

And the way they play with words – so fancy!

I wish I have a fairy…

or maybe and aunty…?

who can tell me how to put words together, more gracefully

 

 

Maybe I should recharge, like a battery

and practice, very diligently

plus be a little less worry

rest my mind and body

maybe the words will follow gently.

 

 

What is on your mind?
