Late hours, rain pouring outside my window

Passing showers, thunder clamoring, and I know

It’s the time, when I find the words so easily

When they rhyme, thoughts coming on, so peacefully

What is it, about the sounds of nature’s wrath?

Why do I sit, instead of seeking out its path?

To wander about, feel the water on my face

I have no doubt, I’d get lost in such a place

Instead I’m here, listening instead of being

How I wish to disappear, the power surely freeing

To get lost, in a world outside this room

At any cost, to do away with all this gloom

But here I stay, my fingers speak of what I see

In every way, I shall remember, this is me

write
I sit here, in my office
My one place to breathe
Where I can write quietly
My gentle reprieve

Placed my hands on the keyboard
But something felt wrong
The words made no sense
As I typed them along

What could be happening?
Not now, my dearest friend!
My keyboard then answered
“Use paper and pen”

A talking piece of hardware
Where all my thoughts do play
Was telling me to change it up
To try a new display

“Learn to flow more freely
Write your verse, with endless flair
Then sit back and admire
What you’ve done, unaware”

Another Verse, Another Day

owl-947741_960_720
Headphones on, to dim the noise

Fingers on the keyboard, poised

Words begin to type themselves

Thinking, maybe, I have elves

No, it’s me, who taps away

Another verse, another day

Things are starting to make sense

Thoughts and meanings so intense

Can’t believe my brain’s still going

Now this poem’s overflowing

Enter, comma, too much drama

All this writing’s causing trauma

Blurring letters fall off the page

I’m starting now, to disengage

Eyes begin to droop and close

Maybe I should switch to prose
