The Pen is Mightier than the Sword

Greetings everyone, this is my first time here so be gentle. I was invited by my friend Regel to post some of my poetry here, so I'm taking him up on that offer.

 

The Sky Today

 

I tried to write some poems today

But the magic of the pen failed me

The thoughs would not connect today

And the words did not flow freely

I tried many times to write today

And the words on paper, they just piled

The magic was not there today

So I just relaxed and smiled.

 

The sun it shone bright today

Despite the clouds in the sky

I could not write a poem today

And watch the clouds roll by

So I lay down my weary pen today

Even as I relaxed in the grass

And I did not write a poem today

For such a sunset could not last.

Hi there,

 

What a beautiful way to announce your arrival. I'm certainly glad your pen led you here. This poem has a gentle reflective quality I really enjoyed.

 

Thank you for posting and welcome to The Pen!

 

Cerulean. :)

I found this easy to read. Sometimes longer or more 'complex' works (for want of a better term) leave me feeling bogged down because they're difficult to get into. This was a pleasure for me to read.

Thanks.

So you decided to find a new home to post. I am very happy you chose to do so Yog. Welcome!! The poem is an interesting one. It deals with a subject all writers have faced, but it seems even an impass inspired you. Welcome home old friend.

Thanks everyone for your kind words. It means much to me. I have several more waiting in the wings to post but didn't want to flood the boards with them. Most are complete but some still need a bit of tweaking. So I'm open to constructive criticism as well. Just don't be too mean. http://www.themightypen.net/public/style_emoticons/default/ohmy.gif

 

Take care all and thanks again for the kind words.
