A poem about writing, inspired by my wish to be an author and an idea to list some beauties of writing.
Writing turns
struggles into stories
sea into land
bullfrogs into princes
mountains into sand
words swirl and spin
as wind and rain
they swallow you whole
and deliver your pain
To the author inside you
who turns hurt into gain
she un-furrows your brow
smooths where you’ve lain
and you silently, surely, write open your chain
