Gerald,
This is so true. Thoough writers most probably started out as readers and went there in previous books. If we could all afford to go everywhere books take us is would be great.
Congrats on placing third in the contest.
Keep writing and stay healthy
Joan

    Thank you for your kind review and generous rating. One 'what came first' sidenote: even though writers started out as readers, we were reading what a writer had experienced first. Which came first, the chicken or the egg? Thank you for your comment. I loved it!

This is so very true. Many people say they want to write a book, but only real writers use their imagination to write the book. This is a great 3-line poem. Best of luck in the contest.

Nice poem for the contest. I love the last line about writers go first, their imagination is the spark that kindles the imagination of the reader. A kind of philosophical poem.

Creative, clever, and brilliant.
A difficult task to write a three-line poem, however, your poem is so true. It is the writer whose imagination takes the reader on imaginary adventures.
Good luck in the contest, this certainly should be a contender.
Best wishes,
Mary

Gerald,
I enjoyed your 3 line poetry entry. It's concise and profound. We writers get dissed, though, in the movie arena. Writers, who enabled the whole movie process to get started with their imaginative ideas, are low on Hollywood's totem pole.
Excellent entry.
Good luck in the contest,
Best wishes,
Cindy

This one struck a chord with me! I find it difficult to write so succinctly, but you managed it remarkably well! I hope this does well in the contest. We'll have a new challenge at FW tomorrow!
