Creativity
If creativity is your proclivity,
then why dawdle about?
Get your foot out of your rear,
and stop playing down and out.
Daylight is burning in the midday sun,
and you haven't figured out how to have fun?
Don't walk… get out and run!
For life's a box of chocolate cherries,
and we can cherry pick what we want.
We don't have to hand write well anymore,
just pick out a beautiful font.
We can color it myriad to make glorious art,
we just have to pick from a rainbow chart.
Draw with your finger, draw with your tongue,
a glance of your eye, or a thought on the run.
A new world of creation is at your command,
app yourself up, and create a new land.
Where you can be happy, and fear no more,
cast out the ghosts, breathe like never before.
The world is your oyster, don't get stuck on the shoals,
get yourself going and establish some goals.
"We are all creative," a fine poet once wrote,
so wake up and get up, cross over that moat.
"Those who aren't busy living, are busy dying."
The poet of the 20th century sang.
Ring in the new century with your bell rang.

Writings of a poet can reflect his/her inner self. Your poem reflects a healthy happy heart and soul. It is so good to read your poetry, because they flow so well and so colorful like a painter painting on a colorful painting on the kaleidoscope of life.
Your poems are so UNLIKE some others unhappy poets who are constantly dwelling on some negativity and something unpleasant that would only drag the readers down to their own darkness within their hearts and souls.
I prefer to read yours anytime.

One of my favorite comic strips is Frank & Ernest. In todays paper they said,
The world is my oyster, And I'm allergic to shell fish.

Yep. Creativity has been made easy for us, but still, if you ain't got the "feel" you ain't got doodley-squat. I sometimes get very creative, more often I get doodley-squat, pretty fonts, etc. or not.
