Can it be now a wrapup?

Wayne Blair 1951 (London)

Rhymed

Can it be my work
In this place is done?
Had some ideas
Some metaphors
Som zany word choices
Some fun.
Some friends who gave
Real comment
Time to time.
Or asked an honest issue
That we might climb.
Thanks and sayonara.
All who love this Art.
Stands up special
Set apart.
Amen.

Your poetic reflection beautifully encapsulates the sentiments of completion and gratitude towards the creative journey shared with friends and fellow artists. The acknowledgment of ideas, metaphors, word choices, and the value of genuine feedback from friends resonates deeply with the creative process. Your expression of thanks and farewell carries a sense of closure and appreciation for the artistic community that has supported and inspired you. Your words convey a sense of reverence for the art form and the connections forged through creativity. Amen to the journey and the art that sets us apart. more »

Thanks for your kind words of empathy and encouragement anonymous3142. Your kind of personal approach is needed more from Forum members. Would then warrant the badge of Community.

sometimes we can get caught up in something and want to write, but write too much, grow tired after awhile and wish to stop. but with new thoughts that come, you might want to write them down somewhere, it does not have to be here. not sure that was your experience but what i thought of to say after reading your poem. more »
