Not witchcraft, wordcraft.

In the calling hour

of darkness

thoughts move

in the shadows

of my mind.

Awake,

bewitched by the pen

I  am compelled to

write down the thoughts

that have a spell on me.

I love your word choice of feeling compelled. Sometimes, it just drives me to stop what I'm doing, and get to that keyboard. Good to see you, Andrew!

[andrew mitchell]

Thank you Kelly, what a nice thing to say. Nice to hear from you too.

Haha thank you for your words Jacob.

I love this. Clean & direct, sparkling like a chunk of onyx. I am also bewitched by the urge to spill my words! (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie

[andrew mitchell]

As always thank you Margie for your kind words.😀

Very poetic and lovely. Th spell can be the forces of the unknown, the moods of the moment and the inspiration behind it all. Pens are mighty swords or healing balms depending on the writer. I love the title and the poem sir Mitchell.

[andrew mitchell]

Thank you Sir Sami, ruler of all story telling of high calibre.

[Sami Khalil]

Hahaha. Thank you kindly sir Mitchell. You are welcome.

The events of the day do cast a "Spell" upon us
when we unwind and have a mind to pen a
poem according to our mood. I feel foolish,
so I will write a foolish poem.... my friend.
as ever, Pat

[andrew mitchell]

Thanks Pat I will return the love soon commenting on your works.
