The smallest things make our pens sing
Brilliant my friend, simply freaking brilliant. The flow of this piece was simply intoxicating, overwhelming and fulfilling. If this doesn't pull someone out of block then there is not turning back my friend.
God bless!

Ha ha! A fantastic poem about creativity - I think you must have had fun with this one! Light and lovely rhyme about writing that we can all relate to. This is very well done, Dean. Best wishes, Pete

HEE HAW...ride 'em cowboy. You have a point. We simply have to stop and smell the roses. Pausing to appreciate all that surrounds us is giving "glory to God". I like the line "writing helps to keep us grounded". Very nice poem.

You hit the right note with this post, Dean. Stupid me, I was having Sunday, Churchy thoughts when I read your "The Glory of Creation".
But when I saw the butterflies who munch where they find their lunch, I thought what better landscape for urging us writers to keep the inspiration flowing through whatever skill or skull.
Good job, as usual, Dean.

Hi Dean, thanks for giving me a peek into your lighter, gentler muse! Love the authors notes, all of a sudden I feel like a cowgirl! Being agnostic I'm a little bummed out that God gets all the glory, but it has to go somewhere! I'm sorry, didn't mean to be rude. I love this side of you as well, your ability to see into the mind and soul of the artist. And you're right, I'm hungry!

Dean; I was reading the other day from The Scientific Journal And what is said was very amazing. That does with mines being influenced by music and writing poetry and short stories are not affected by Alzheimer's and if they continued to use their minds as well throughout their lifetime they will not have a chance to get Alzheimer's. Your poem made me think of this that being creative is definitely a God's gift in many ways than one. Your rhyming is very unique and neither stressed nor labored and very helpful in your rhythmic flow of things. Your rhythm's tempo, cadence, timing and meter or all helpful in making the reading of your poem easy, clear and fluid. I truly like your animated graphics and the picture of the person in a page with pencils with the space being created from a blow of tiles. Thanks for sharing and posting and may the good Lord be with you always Dean.

Appreciate how you hint to all that we have a gift, not all have the gift of writing, and as in the body of Christ, not all get to be a writer, not all get to be the big toe. Again, your words run deep, and you never completely divorce yourself from the sense of purpose in what you do. Stan

Dean: I read each line, waiting for the ghoul-thing to make its appearance but nary a scary did I read. I complete all the words then take note of the vine growing under the words . . . and there it is! A skeleton head hiding in those vines. I knew you couldn't do it, I bet myself you would do it and have to be at least a little scary. Heh, heh, heh got ya! Linda

No blood, no gore and guts, veins and hair? How tepid, even if flawlessly assembled. If I posted all I wrote, widespread depression and nausea might result.
Good advice for those with fire in the gut.

You prove that inspiration can be drawn from anywhere, as you always seem to find the right words to gift us with the horrific and the Heavenly. Thanks for another fine poem. :-)
