a Pen a Pad & Me

writing gives me pleasure

no matter where I go

 

 

I take my pen and pad with me

'cos you never know

 

 

just when inspiration

will hit you in a rush

 

 

in the high street shopping

or queuing for a bus

 

 

I get some funny looks

from people passing by

 

 

as I lean against a wall

and my pen begins to fly

 

 

like lightening 'cross the paper

in perfect harmony

 

 

with the thoughts and ideas

that have just come over me

 

 

but I pay no attention

to the stares and to the grins

 

 

fact is, they do not know

they could be appearing in

 

 

the latest verse I'm writing

be it long or be it short

 

 

I only know when ideas come

that I simply ought

 

 

to put pen to paper

no matter where or when

 

 

because if lost that idea

might never come again.

      Thank you

      I also type mine now but would still not be without my little note book to capture moments that could be so easily forgotten. Loved the 9 points too...lol
