I've been there a time or two with writer's block or some kind of block. But it never fails, some word, some sound, or smell will lure me back to the written page. My wish for your friend is to write from the soul and it may start from a whisper.

Exceptional poem on this very spiritual topic! It reaches deeply into the thoughts of being one with Him, in him with him through him in the unity of the spirit. It seems the block has been obliterated! Bravo!

A very deep and well written poem. Is your friend frustrated by writer's block, or is he ok with it? His answer makes all of the difference. After forty years of doing commissioned paintings, I quit. I've never been happier. I write and do other things. I agree with Regis. No one can force one to write.

This makes one think. I understand "writer's block." No one can "force" one to write. One cannot even "force" oneself in my opinion. Inspiration has to come from within or from wherever but I believe there must be inspiration and it cannot be compelled. Anyway, my best wishes to Chris. Thank you for sharing this, Chanti. Love to you. Regis
