Lines that I scribble
Fall slowly, my mind
Starting to dribble
A trickle of ink
A blotch full of letters
That turn into words
Somehow much better
Than leaving the paper
Barren and white
This is my legacy
At the end of the night
Writing Prompt: Scribbles and Dribbles β Day 27/31

A dribbling mind that blotches our scribbles,
Perhaps our old laptop would play like a fiddle.
An old saying says that the trouble with Tribbles
Is that no one can read our dribbled on scribbles.
Loved your post m’lady πβ€
