The waiting

As the pen awaits
the blank page stares
back at me
to spill out the bottled up
to extract what is waiting up
for me to realize 
the sacredness
the feeling to sense the sanctity
of the practice that sets off healing 
of the mind and soul,
Purgation is still concealing 
as my pen awaits 
and the blank page stares
back at me.

  2. Ooh it can be really intimidating staring at that blank page can't it, I agree with Brian, let it out and worry about the words you leave behind afterwards. It all counts, it all deserves to leave your pen! Nicely done.

  3. Blank page is an open canvas, waiting for your creation .... so just flow with your emotions and give your best shot :-)

  5. Sometimes it's not a lack of inspiration or ideas, it's an overabundance!

  6. In the courts of royalty, I often find, the dullards are particularly annoying. You have identified a major category of useless civil servants -- the blank page. You send a blank page out to fetch something and he gives you that stupid, vacant look, and you know he'll never get it right. If he comes back at all.

    There are – I am reliably told by royal household staffs the world over – just two sorts of princesses in the world. One goes to bed with a good book, the other with a good page. But good pages are – er – so hard to find!
