My Writing

There are so many people out there who are much more articulate with their writing than I. All of you who read my postings; those who hit like and particularly those who comment whether good or bad are really appreciated. Many of you encourage me to put my thoughts in a book. At my age, unlike Grandma Moses, I don't think I have the wherewithal to do that. Perhaps someday when I'm no longer walking this earth, one of my family members will want to tackle that project.

Some people paint or draw; some people write music. Others , like me find thoughts racing through their minds and eventually coming out the ends of their fingers. Not sure how other people who create feel but it feels to me if my thoughts don't get out, my head will burst.

I write poetry sometimes while always wishing creative poetic words would just easily flow into print at will. But, it doesn't happen that way. My poetry has always come at the point where someone I love is hurting; something in my life is pressing on my mind or I'm just full to overflowing with joy at some event. Most poems come in the night. If they aren't captured on paper, they are gone the next morning. Perhaps I'm just weird that way.

I'm an avid reader. At times, there are three or more books laying about in several forms; just started, half way through or almost finished. Why the story lines don't get jumbled in my head in confusion I'm not sure, but somehow each story seems to individualize.

Okay, enough about me. This is to you because I do appreciate my faithful readers. And, I do remember those who read and like each day. Hopefully, you are reading because you are interested and not just because it popped up on your screen.

I appreciate all of you, my friends...........
