No Idea

When thoughts refuse to befriend

and ideas shy away from you,

the mind goes blank,

like a clean slate.

Unfortunately the markets don’t sell them,

nor do the online portals!

The fodder for your writing

is your own creation.

Embark on a pursuit of thoughts

in books, people or places.

Let them tickle the thought process.

Get inspired by nature,

sedate the confused ripples.

It’s then, the ideas sprout

to spill a riot of words.

Gently sort and dress them

to create magic with ink!

  1. Books, people and places can be great sources of inspiration. Like many others, I really do find communing with nature an instant source of inspiration.
    I love the way you expressed it: “let it tickle your thoughts…” So appealing to the senses that it diminishes the “block” right away! 🙂

  2. This one is fab!!👌 now that you’ve penned down what a writer may feel, your words will surely touch the chords of many many people who are reluctant at their expression, but they have lot of beautiful things to say!! Someday, I wish, they reach the bookstands👍👍😊😊

  4. That is creativity that has spilled out of a writers block, my favorite poet!
    Every time I finish one post, I wonder what I will write next, at times I stay blank for longer periods than expected and then out of the blue, a poem, a story, a fellow blogger drops a hint that will get the mind busy and my fingers flying! Just glad I am not alone there.
