Right before I start a poem I always look at the empty sheet of paper and admire the beauty of it... I'm so weird!!!!!!!
a beautiful pure white
Lowering my pencil but
not knowing what to write
Should it be a story
or a ballad long and sad
Or a poem proclaiming love
from a lassie to a lad
I could be the next Silverstien
One among the great
But not if my paper is in
a poetryless state
It could be a fairytale
of dragons and of queens
Or I could write a cookbook,
"What not to do with beans"
I'm putting down my pencil
and giving the paper a glare
I am personally content
When there is nothing there
And so sits my piece of paper
slowly growing old
An unfinished work of art
No stories to be told

Paper
Staring at the papera beautiful pure white
Lowering my pencil but
not knowing what to write
Should it be a story
or a ballad long and sad
Or a poem proclaiming love
from a lassie to a lad
I could be the next Silverstien
One among the great
But not if my paper is in
a poetryless state
It could be a fairytale
of dragons and of queens
Or I could write a cookbook,
"What not to do with beans"
I'm putting down my pencil
and giving the paper a glare
I am personally content
When there is nothing there
And so sits my piece of paper
slowly growing old
An unfinished work of art
No stories to be told
