Focus

Nothing distracts a writer from writing

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The room is quiet.

The light is dim.

The windows are open,

Letting cool air in.

Music flows from outside,

And children's laughter.

Dogs bark in time,

To the parents banter.

Papers are scattered,

Books are spread.

One cat goes fishing,

While the other yowls to be fed.

The teapot whistles,

The fire crackles.

Moths gather,

While birds heckle.

But all noise is lost,

On the man doing his will,

As the only sound he hears,

Is the scratching of his quill

This is so effortless. The rhyme and flow are excellent and the font just enhances it all! Amazing write!

[Everson Taveras]

The rhyming here is flawless throughout the entire poem, and the imagery used here is thought provoking, so well crafted and written in a certain that leaves the reader imagining the entire scene play before his eyes, as if he were before a movie screen. Well done.

This is amazing. The personification, the rhyming scheme, all adds to the flow and initial message of the poem. The line "On the man doing his will" is quite ambiguous which I found brilliant because it can be interpreted in many ways.

This is brillant. As you read it you flow into a past time and it captivates you. This poem to me gives off an writers emotions as they get lost in their work. It's a great peice that flows easily and through each line and I love the rhyming and setting that your putting up. I can really tell you have a nack for poem's.
