Here is a poem I wrote a couple of years back when I was trying to put my thoughts down and got frustrated. :) I think it is fun.

 

Words of a Song


Writing is such a frustrating thing!

Words that flow so eloquently in your mind
cannot be written quickly enough.
By the time they make it to the page
they are jumbled and awkward.
Inevitably some of the words
are lost and forgotten along the way.

But every now and then a miracle happens.
Your brain and hand become one.
The words become clear before you,
captured for all to see.
Your words become a song to others,
and your heart is full.

Writing is such a wonderful thing!

--Gina Wheeler, 1999
