I send my words into the sky Watch them rhyme and then fly. I close my eyes and feel the air Forgotten words lost without care. I take the letters in my hand And put them on a poetic stand. I scribe the words on a starlit scroll Watch words take shape as night unfolds. My dreams drift from a soul that bleeds In the blue of ink, fractured lines freed. I run my hands over my words My fingers feel the emotions stirred. With tender ease, the poetry glides From my page to your eyes.
The last two lines wow awesome.

If you’ve been struggling to write I promise it doesn’t show. I’m finding creativity a hard thing at the moment as well. It’s a rotten feeling. The old man is back on WP etc. to stop himself thinking. Odd way to put it. Anyhow, have the best ever New Year ~ George

This is very very lovely… so many good lines. These parts I loved, particularly:
“I scribe the words on a starlit scroll
Watch words take shape as night unfolds.”
wow… and…
“I run my hands over my words
My fingers feel the emotions stirred.”
I love this image of a poet touching the letters of the starlit scroll with reverence… but the whole poem is truly magical, dear Yassy ✨✍️
