Merlin

According to purists

I cannot write,
I am an illiterate
penner of words

I write because
when I don't
there is an

unfinished symphony
that haunts
my dreams
at night.

You write with feeling and imagination, and expressed my own feelings about writing with pure genius, so there!

Nick is right. And when the crab apples are gone, the tree remains to flower again in Spring. Keep finishing those symphonies! Peter

Who Needs Life According To Purists??!!

To one of my favorite evolving writers, Elle
Tell the so called "purists" to go to hell
You are a bright "penner of words"
While most "purists" are just for the birds

Schubert's "Unfinished Symphony" was more than enough
We readers don't need any more of that unfinished stuff
Keep up with your skillful writing employment
To give us poor non-purists our reading enjoyment
