Free Flow

The Written Word

Pat Arnold
Free Flow

Tumbling, spilling, like a cup overflowing, the words run from your mind.

Stacking in free form, sometimes in formation;

senseless, non-sensical, giddy, elation.

Try as you may, and as time passes by you,

fly fishing to catch them, phraseology finding.

Slow down, take a breath, and let them flow freely,

line upon line, with just the right meaning.

Limerick, tongue-twister, sonnet, or novel,

lyric, short story, novella or folly.

Write with abandon or write for you life

all for pure pleasure, superbly sublime.
