Writing Skill Unused...

Tis a crime not to use what God has given...


Poem Artwork

I know this guy,

With a modicum of writing skill,

He is out there amongst the people,

We have together gotten at times high…

 

But little does he write,

Too little for my taste,

He is also quite bright,

He is a computer whiz,

And can pass any quiz…

 

So why does he not write,

He will one day see the light,

At least I hope, then he’ll get it right,

You know him too, at least you might…

I'm sure he has some health concerns and many other things on his plate. I may have to cut back writing and reading here if I'm ever to finish another novel while still working full time.

Being a words-junkie I can't understand people don't wishing, wanting, unable to write. It will be like no taking a bath because the soap is still wrapped in paper. Oh well! one day that dude (or dudee?) will surprise the world with a fantastic write! and a bath!

Not everyone has the bug, ed...some can write well enough to earn a living at it, but don't feel it like those of us who are addicts;-)

We are given the gifts we have for a reason, and they can be taken from us, so I choose to take advantage of them, thank you for this Ed
