Writing A Poem

WRITING A POEM

I've been trying to write a poem

For what feels like ages

But i keep looking down

And there's only blank pages.

Should i use prose

Or a lot of rhyming

The last thing i want

Is poetic social climbing.

It's a real problem

It must be writers block

I'm now spending all my time

Just looking at the clock.

I'm really struggling now

But i have a hunch

I'll stop this at the moment

And i'll go and have my lunch.

I settle down at the table

Have some food and drink

Then without pressure

I begin to think.

I go back to writing

And what do you know

The break has worked a treat

And the words begin to flow.

Just like a gardener

Who has plants and wants to grow them

An idea takes root

And becomes a fully-fledged poem.
