Writes block overtook me today
I prayed that very soon it would go away
Actually there was nothing specific I wanted to say
Nothing that stirred my soul in any particular way
No; that’s not strictly honest or true
Something bothered me but what could I do?
My thoughts wouldn’t flow from line to line
Leave it I thought; they’ll flow in time!
I’ve learnt long ago in my extensive past
To let go of stress for that way it cannot last!
Often I feel I’ll be guided as I begin to write’
When suddenly inspiration fades from my sight!
Instinctively I know to put down my pen
I’ll be aware of the best time to start again;
The time when thoughts and words will begin to race
Clearly through my mind at a guided deliberate steady pace
Words will appear on paper speedily one after another
Inspiration only disappears briefly I’ve come to discover
As thoughts enter my mind in uninterrupted free flow
They seem to find the exact right order in which to go
To pass on a message someone is yearning to hear
Responses to my words make that enormously clear.
Sometimes I won’t know why a specific thought did surface
Then later discover that to others it had value and purpose.
Finally as I write an inner knowing washes over me
Indicating that I’ve covered the topic thoroughly
Intuitively I know exactly when to cease
I know this because I am centered in peace
Now for someone who began with writes block today
I’ve managed to have quite a bit to say!
These words may seem somewhat hollow and of very little meaning
But beneath their melodic rhyme a deeper message is gleaming
So let me state it now loud for one and all to hear
‘Let go of stress when it does in your life appear!’
Stress only ever enters you day with your given permission
Let go or hold on – It’s entirely your own choice and decision!
Now I also know that my writers block was meant to be
So I would write of how from stress one can be easily set free!
