How poetry began for me.

by June   Jan 5, 2007


It began when i was feeling lonely ,
the writing of poems that is.
We had moved to a new place ,
and my family I did miss.
Face to face I'm rather shy ,
a hobby was what i needed to find.
My youngest had started playgroup ,
so i needed something to fill my mind.
I started reading but would never finish a book ,
and that is when it occured to me.
Things had happened throughout my life ,
and poetry helped set my thoughts free.

    Words allow you to imagine a somewhere else, a something else, a someone else
    but they dont change reality..

    Same with me...feeling lonely and needing something to help fill the time. No better way to express yourself on events in your lives! I enjoy reading your poetry!
