A little poem about writer’s block/emotion block…

My lips turn up in smile
When they really want to scream.
I seek illusions
To keep me in my dream.
My ideas swarm in net,
Awaiting my reply,
But I just stare at blankness
While inked tools run dry.
I hold my numbing words,
Seemed paralyzed by choice,
When I long to free emotions
And give my heart a voice.
I am the epitome of Free Spirit,
With no regret or rage,
And I know this to be true,
From the label upon my Cage…

    Linda, what a wonderful poem you have penned here that prompts one to think and reflect. At times we as creative folks experience these emotions as our thoughts seem to race through our minds making no sense whatsoever. Suddenly like a light switch being turned on everything falls into its place and we somehow find our harmony once again. You got me off racing with thoughts and I just want to say its awesome to read your words of art as you are such an inspiration for so many. Wonderful Poem Linda…
