creativity

artwork by elana feliciano

open the door to your imagination

no need to wait for the bell to ring

just welcome all those ideas

keep your pen in hand

and your heart open

the muse will send them to you

dip your pen in the inkwell of memory

allow your fingers to soar

through the creative atmosphere

hunt for just the right words

till you revel in the delirium of creativity

The title caught my eye and your beautiful poem if full of inspiration.
I love this line ‘dip your pen in the inkwell of memory’ Love the image too.
Think I shall try to write.

The Artwork reminds me of Rubik’s Cube of Love. I believe a Hungarian invented Rubik’s Cube.. Hungary is my Heritage.. The Blue Danube…. gently, Pat

[Lydia Shutter]

Thanks again, Pat.

A gorgeous poem of Encouragement… as though etched on Parchment… tenderly, Pat

I agree with this in theory, Lydi, but sometimes my muse is pouty and difficult. Makes me want to slap the wench.

Laughing here.....want to show her who is boss? LOL Thanks, John. Lydi**

Fabulous artwork you have posted to accompany your words here Lydi**. Loved the metaphor you have used. How us writers wish that door of creativity remained well abd truly open. Sometimes, it manages to close itself.

Indeed, Chris, there are days the door is shut tight and the key is missing. Thank you so much for not only the review, but for noticing the artwork. Lydi**

As you know Lydi, I have trouble finding the key to my imagination, but why on earth is the artwork of two Chinese girls whispering and giggling? They know where my key is, but I think I heard them say I have to take twenty guesses before they tell me.😊

If not 21! LOL Thanks for the visit, Lorry. Lydi**
