I Love Writing Poetry

I Love Writing Poetry

I love writing poetry
Poetry can be written
Anytime, anywhere
Words are everywhere
Waiting to be put together
Changed and altered
To write new meanings and
New imagery
Waking up
In the middle of the night
And making notes of images
Possible lines and titles
Handwriting the poem
Reviewing it
For spelling and grammar
Reading it out loud
Letting it brew for a time
Final check and any edits
It’s all part of the process
And the joy I feel
From writing poetry
