My experiences as a Writing.Com member. Entry to The Virtues of Poetry Contest.

Committed to Writing and Writing.Com

Since I have been charmed by Writing.Com,
Oh the stories I’ve written; short poems, and long.
Now that I’ve found this site’s inspiration,
New characters have mingled, nation to nation.

My book is now growing; creative soul spoken,
Reviews are helping to fix what is broken.
I have created lives on the fly:
Jack the fish, and Jordan P.I.

Abby the monkey, and Shamra the cat,
A banana rockin’ spider who knows where it’s at.
Thriller, suspense, and mystery boom.
My keyboard, an engine that leaps from the room.

People who, like me, are fishing for fun,
Writing, creating, exploring each one.
Portfolio’s open, all are unique.
As I sip at my tea, their stories all speak.

Stories to laugh at and poems to cry.
Questions and answers. Activities to try.
I am committed to writing and Writing.Com;
A buzzing Fire Fly, glad to belong.
