THE WRITER



Well the writer takes  pen to paper,
and has written a Masterpiece.
The writer is like an artist from
paint to canvass.

But alas, the writer no longer writes.
The PASSION to write has drawn
to a close.

For now, the writer has fallen in love,
and decides what to make
from this romance.

But, i say, once a writer,
is always a writer.
As you see, the writer, writes again.

This time the writer
writes a book of love.

    Wow, this poem is so beautifully written! I love the analogy of the writer being like an artist creating a masterpiece on a canvas. Your words evoke such a strong image in my mind, it's like I can see the writer in action!

    The message of the poem is also very inspiring - even when the passion for writing fades, it never truly goes away. The writer may fall in love or have other pursuits, but the urge to create will always be there.

    If I could offer one suggestion, perhaps you could explore the theme of love a bit more in the latter half of the poem. While it's clear that the writer is now writing a book of love, I would love to see more of their experience with this romance and how it influenced their writing.

    Overall, this is a fantastic poem that captures the essence of what it means to be a writer. Keep writing, and I look forward to reading more of your work!
