A Recurring Thought (Submission for Debate via Prose or Poetry Group . . . 03/15/25)

A Poem by LisaCarol
"

One recurring thought I’ve had for as long as I can remember.

"

One recurring thought

Haunts and inspires me.

With fear and anticipation,

I must experience 

This roller coaster ride.


An unknown journey. 

At times difficult,

Other times easy.

A tale I may share,

Or a secret I keep.


Hence, 

Criticism or accolades,

Don’t really matter.


This one recurring thought 

I’ve had all my life is 

Simply to write.

A touch of truth wrapped in a poem, dear LisaCarol.. and methinks the first offering to the Group! And - never start with. (who sez so?) when it comes to writing there is a 'must be written' even if it takes time to come to fruition!' However, seems you began writing the above in a flash of a thought!

'One recurring thought
Haunts and inspires me.
With fear and anticipation,
I must experience
This roller coaster ride.'

How true that often is! Yes and yes, the entire attempt to satisfy can be a twirling, turning, tumbling roller coaster ride! Your glass is definitely full to the brim with glory here!!! Smiling and thanking you for sharing!

This is a sublime expression on the need to write. A need you have had all your life. It gives the reader an introduction to the author and what motivates her. A very smooth read which I enjoyed and I'm sure most will.

Well, by all means keep writing! I've never given much thought to the anticipation of writing since I'm always too busy writing. Or reading. I've never had writer's block that I'm aware of...more like writer's crock and throwing wads of paper in the trash. But I shall return again and again because it's more than what I do, it's who I am. Just a hillbilly poet doing his thing.

Nicely captured and so very apt for the group LisaCarol.
To write or not to write was never the question. To write and to share IS!

Hello Lorry. Thank you so much for your review and kind words.
I'm not really sure what to say except that I really liked this. It felt like a thought I've had myself a lot too. I can go weeks or months or years without writing, but as you said, it always comes back c:
