A Writer's World

A Writer's World

A Poem by Melinda McQueen

A white template

Becomes a free space

In which to bleed the soul

Of all it bestows.

 

Freedom to roam

The longings innermost

Dwellings none could see…

A writer’s world sets them free.

 

A space that invites

Not only others into your fight,

But anchors your feelings,

Giving voice to your believing.

 

Words become poetic prose,

A force all their own.

 

Sometimes they rhyme,

Sometimes they haven’t time.

A creativity in your control…

A writer’s world is ever told.

 

Expressing joy deep,

Or sadness that makes the heart weep.

A desire to be heard… to be read…

To remove something from your heart… your head.

 

A seal between your heart and life,

Words become your eyes.

 

Emotions a tangled mess

Beautifully adorn a page well-dressed.

An oyster’s pearl…

A writer’s world.

I liked how you defined writing and words.
"Emotions a tangled mess
Beautifully adorn a page well-dressed.
An oyster’s pearl…
A writer’s world."
