Paper Airplanes

Paper Airplanes

A Poem by Kelly Scheppers

Paper  Airplanes

 

 

 

crumpled balls of paper

begin to accumulate

in my waste basket

 

day after day

they become nothing more

than unfinished attempts

at writing poetry

 

and what could have been

paper airplanes.

even when words don't find you, thoughts will. I love Paper Airplanes - it reminded me of my childhood and brought back those wonderful memories to the fore. a simple, honest write that captures the poet's mind. I like the expression here and memories it evoked, and thanks for sharing this, Kelly.

Oh no - do you have Writers Block Kelly ? We have all been thru these faĺlow times - I generally find I can manage a haiku though even then. Still a nice Piece nevertheless ✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️
