Pen and Paper

I'll value the pen and paper
I write this with. To me
They're worth more than gold.
I feel fortunate to live in
A place where it is so easy
To write. The horror of the
Thought going through
This world without the solice
Of putting thoughts on paper.
In a place like that I
Would lose my sanity. So
I'll write when the mood strikes
And I'll cherish every moment.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I forgot I once wrote this. I'll never forget it again.

Solace In This

I also am gratified that I can write whenever I want (after working and doing other's bidding for 39 years). I write to live and live to write - Grim Reaper, we rock! Love the pix ~Lady A~
