This writing THING



This writing thing
That I thought was a fling
Turned out to be a sting.

How that sting gave me a wing –
Having carried me to Beijing
Hurriedly it turned me into a king.

It is the magic of this thing.
Imagine that it from me words wring.
I for my life to it cling.

Now I will give it a ring
Needing to take it for a swing.
Nature: it has made me sing!

Given me it has this spring
Gaily; yet what will I to it bring?
Gently I still need to find the red string.

this rythmic flow of this felt like i was swinging. Up, up, up, I go to catch the rhyme, then swooshing backwards to pick up the other. I love the feeling it gives me. : )
