Spiral Bound:

Spiral Bound:

My spiral bound notebook
kept close in my rucksack
for my daily mundane entries
on simple issues of life.

Words written may seem
little or insignificant but they
hold a record of things
which are dear to me.

With these words I hope to
paint pictures, tiny picture post
cards of life and events,
happy and sad that come to me.

Through my eyes I see
the good, the bad and things a
camera may or may not be able
to completely see.

My pen transcribes onto
my spiral bound and weaves
the stories of life which
I hope to share.

The lines may not be long,
the words need not be colorful,
but be concise for you to see
exactly what I feel, smell and hear.

For words are able to show
emotions and feelings deep from
within the writer's mind and soul.

    Such a nice write, it completely reminds me of myself. I always have my little spiral book with me or beside me, in case the need or urge to write arises.

    The lines may not be long,
    the words need not be colorful,
    but be concise for you to see
    exactly what I feel, smell and hear.

    I am glad I came across this piece, you have penned a wonderful poem, good job!

    What a wonderful piece you have penned.

    My pen transcribes onto
    my spiral bound and weaves
    the stories of life which
    I hope to share.

    for years I have kept journals. hopefully someday my grandchildren will learn things from me when I'm no longer around to share my wisdom with them.

    The lines may not be long,
    the words need not be colorful,
    but be concise for you to see
    exactly what I feel, smell and hear.

    Being disabled..I have many friends who have taken me on so many journies through their words. I can actually imagine being there and seeing what they see.

    For words are able to show
    emotions and feelings deep from
    within the writer's mind and soul.

    Words are so powerful and can do so many things. Bring out so many emotions.
    Excellent job!
    Love and hugs
