“I Am a Writer” 5/18/12
“I am a writer”
Because…
I have a need to contemplate, explore and inform.
Words inspire me; metaphor intrigues me; and “create” reanimates me… endlessly.
Writing is the path my soul has chosen; the mark I’ll leave will be cast in words…
“It was a dark and stormy night…”
Wait, that’s fiction – sorry, wrong contest… Here is my submission to the “Jeff Goins, ‘I am a writer contest’”:
A few Haikus: (drumroll, please…)
Observe, feel, inform;
Voice creates, then cultivates.
I AM A WRITER.
**********************************************************
My journey, my voice -
Courageous, inspiring,
Must create to live.
***********************************************************
Your Voice can be found…
It just needs uncovering;
YOU ARE A WRITER.
**************************************************************
My soul, its journey –
Inspired, driven and stoked
By thoughts, vision, words.
**************************************************************
Passion and Practice,
The fire will uncover
The voice to be heard.
***********************************************************
-Buddha “What we think we become”
-Ralph Waldo Emerson “Once you make a decision, the universe conspires to make it happen.”
…I AM A Writer.
