The more I grow, baptized in this world of blogging the more thankful I am for it.
Before I wrote, pen to paper.
Silent alone.
The voices in my head the only audience I sought.

Their remarks grow trite. Soured by past memories.
Today I post,
and wait.
Watching for approval for that perfect sentence,
clicking comparison,
and purring prose.
The comments come, and the voices
are rested.
I agree totally! I have found my writing blogger "friends" to be so supportive of my efforts, and I eagerly look forward to comments. It's so nice to not feel isolated in my writing any more. Nice piece!
ReplyDeleteKeep blogging, Valerie! I love your pics,they are great. And I think that you have found that perfect sentence!

ReplyDeleteBeautifully written. I wish I had the courage to do a bit of creative writing on my blog, but I'm too scared. I love this poem-blog-post-beauty of yours :)
ReplyDeleteLadies you are all so kind! I love poetry. It is great practice for letting the reader infer. I struggle with that in my writing, but find it easier after a poetry binge.
ReplyDeleteNice write! There is deep truth to this and I am sure many can identify with it. I enjoyed it and the form and drawing are delightful.

ReplyDeleteTwo of my good friends (respected peers I trust) just commented before me. Never would have had the pleasure of knowing them if not for testing the waters of the blogosphere.
ReplyDeleteYes, this blogging world is more of a real community than I ever could have imagined. :)
ReplyDeleteYes! I'm glad I found you; I enjoy your words and photographs. I'm finding that blogging on a weekly basis stimulates my mind and keeps me on a writing schedule. Plus, connecting with others is the point of this existence!
