"I have never started a poem yet whose end I knew.  Writing a poem is discovering." ~  Robert Frost

I must admit it has been a busy week, and by the time I get to this blog, I'm rather spent - though I continue to be dedicated to my intent to blog daily.  I'm thankful for my Saturday night poems for this purpose!  Here is another one from last Saturday night.  Did I mention I haven't written many poems in recent years?  Some scattered about, but not many, and not lately - writing, yes, but poetry, no - Saturday night was a spontaneous exercise, and one I intend to repeat.  When I was a teen and young adult, I loved to write poetry, but things were different then . . .

In the old days

there was actually

a stack

a page

a pen

or maybe a typewriter

I can’t decide if this is better.

Poetry is an artistic adventure.  We don't need to be Robert Frost to proceed down the path.  We just need to be ourselves, and that is enough.
