WRITER'S DILEMMA

 

                      WRITER’S DILEMMA

    

     Each stroke of pen author silently sighs,

     pressure, hours, days, weeks, months, time flies,

     stimulated mentally, constant challenges,

     guts, determination, instinctively emerges.

 

     Theme follows theme, but structure required,

     editing exhausting, patience expired,

     seek professional opinion - news good or bad,

     years of stress, await analysis, - elated or sad.

 

    Poetic Rhythm:

    Poets create own genre, challenge supreme,

     their heart, mind, fulfilled, a glorious dream,

     self-gratification each poem, one’s major goal

     unless an eulogy for deceased friendly soul.
