... S

Empty pages invite sages, yet there is none; so the writer takes the helm and though his words may underwhelm; at the least, he fed the beast!

. . . . . S

These pages, these spaces,

They scream out lonely words, lovely words,

Hidden in the traces of a smile!

Conversations...

Between pen and paper..

Men and women

Mere mediators 'twixt the two.

Words beckon..lovers in a scene,

Some dramatic, some serene.

Prose or poem,

Novel, script...

Stories flow, some witty quip,

That manipulate, ingratiate

The beauty of the mind

Leaving your reality behind.

Take my hand, in this, our wanderlust,

Search out pages clean..

A wilderness of white, storywriters words invite.

So when next a book you take,

Don't forsake, read the signs,

Try to read between the lines.

PEACE
