“What do you write he asked?
could I have read your books?
laid my pen down on my notepad
and I turned to him and said…
“I write stories about the people
I meet from day to day
about my family, about friends
the things they want to say
I write of love that’s strong
and of love gone wrong
of clocks that take too long
about the birds and bees
about kids with bony knees
I write about majestic trees
I write in hopes that death and war
will be no more
that everyone will feed the poor
I write how wedding bells chime
ivory seashore shells lost in time
my friend all these things are fine…”
he looked at me bored and said “I see...”
then as he turned quick to depart
I smiled at him before I said
“It’s simple I write what’s in my heart.”

You covered so much, what is in every poets heart, and a few dark ones, thrown in for measure and we have a poetry extravaganza! What "I" LOVED best about this poem (I have to tell ya') is, YOU put down your pen, and looked at him, it showed full attention as you explained! Important in any relationship sharing! I enjoyed this poem, of reality!
Let's ALWAYS write, write, write, what's from our hearts/soul!
STay Happy, STrong and enjoy your changes ahead Sweet Fee!
Warm hugs and love, Warrior Lady PURPLE Sheeeoox
STay SAFE!

This is so true. Sometimes a writer will put pen to paper with no clue what will come about until the poem is written...it just flows.
