Yes, we have all been through this haven't we. I love how you've chiselled the words out that weren't flowing freely. Determination succeeded. A 5-7-5 poem that we can all relate too, Ginda. Well done.
cheers,
valda

Ciao mystery poet! You now have 4 votes.

Most entries were similar yours and Lost for Words stood out .

I chose yours for originality

I loved the idea to crack open the block wall and chisel out words.

Your brilliant poem deserves to win by far .

This is a very neat and creative 5-7-5 poem you have penned about how to get rid of writer's block. You used very good words and very cute imagery to go with your words. Best wishes in the contest. Teri

This is the first optimistic one I've read in this contest. Bravo! And the whole chiselling thing is a grand analogy. Sometimes it does feel like a coalface.

An appropriate metaphor. Don't we all use "hammers" and "chisels" to sculpt our poems and stories? Sometimes we have to break through the "rock" to find them. Rod
