Searching for understanding
Mind's eye loses focus
Clear picture once beheld
Poetic thoughts burned out
Words of choice once freer
Oppressed by life daily stresses
Memories etched on lone hearts
Blank pages bear no poetry
Comments
Hi Barbara
Love the phrase "minds eye looses focus" and "poetic thoughts burned out". So true. And life's stresses can stifle inspiration - how frustrating it is. Sometimes the words flow like a never ending river. Other time the thoughts are dammed up and the water stagnates. Many poets will relate to your cleverly worded poem.
Love Mand xxxxx
Hi Mand
It took a lot of thought to come up with clever words that work for this piece. Thanks for reading and sharing.
Barbara
Loved the write, and as Mand says the flow is fine..
One thing is it a typo to put Looses as opposed to Loses.
I have looked at both:-
Looses is when you let something go.
Loses is when something is lost.
Your call, lol, take care and know we are out here,
Yours Ian.T
PS:- Have listened to your audio, what a beautiful sound, your voice was as I had expected it to be. the words flew away as you spoke.
Here in the UK we rarely hear these accents on words and flows of sound, great spoken word, yours, Ian
Ian
Glad you brought this up. I struggle with the word for this line. Wasn't sure looses or loses. After your defining. I think loses is more accurate. Thanks for reading and sharing.
Hello Barbra
I like how you expressed writer's block. I can easily relate to this at the time being. Just hope this is fictional or if it is personal, that it would end sooner.
Minds eye....Mind's eye?
Hi Rula
It's fictional for me at this time, but I have had momentary writer's block in the past. But fought through it writing lots of crap I hadn't and won't submit. Hope yours end sooner also. Thanks for the suggestion, mind's eye it is.
we all at sometime or the other
experience a writer’s block ….we feel so much inferior…to our selves then ….as one reads another …we feel their vibrations
and in tune commence to vibrate ….our mind once again commences to oscillate ….rotate …as heart palpitates ….
then we like dogs let loose our tongues …. some turmoil …some emotion has well begun …
the writer’s block does erase …
how it does one amaze
out pours glow …like the rivers flow
words come out as you know …from nowhere…
that's how I could compose ten poetries a day ….till Neopoets took my inner inbuilt natural capacity away ….
how I wish we could say …what we wanted
in more than a single way …alas with no power to say
Neopoets don't now read anyway
so writers block does very well stay
I wish you all pray and reinstate the stream …as limitless...
if only one can have some say….
Today!
Thanks loved
Thanks for reading and sharing. Your poem is nice. Feeling of somber
Hello Barbra
I think this google drive is very complicated . For both of your poems it gave a message that I need to wait for the author's permission to reach the file. I think you need to approve every request you get in your email then we can listen to your audio. I believe that vocaroo is less complicated.
Thank Rula
Vocoroo is simpler but It's not compatible with my iPad and iPhone yet.
I've been working with Beau to fix the sharing.
I think I got it. You should be able to listen now.
Goodnight
It late for me and I gotta get up early tomorrow if I can. I can't sleep if things don't work right. Lol
So, If audio isn't working properly, I'll be back on it tomorrow night.
It's working
Yeah, nice to hear you dear Barbra.
Have sweet dreams ! It's working LOL
Thanks Rula
You so quick now I can go to sleep. Glad you enjoyed listening. Lol GN.
Thanks Beau
Glad you like audio and thanks for sharing. I will make that revise.
I doubt you voice is such. Looking to listen to your audio as well.
