Poetry Starts: Gather not those around me

mine


Gather not those around me

For I ask that you not hear me

My words by which I speak are not clear

As by the words I write express the wonderings of my mind

My mind speaks freely
My tongue in caution

 What is Poetry Starts?

…poems and prose from now back to teen years
…remembering a first writing love
…pumping the creative well yet again
…silencing the internal critic
