A PEN HANDLER'S CLOCK By The Northside Authors

A PEN HANDLER'S CLOCK!

Tick tock!

As the moon leaves the stage for the sun,

I stood on my back, with many thoughts.

Tick tock!

I moved to my inner sanctum to weave letters.

There, I poured all of it, indefinably large.

Tick tock!

I took a sip from my fresh tea that slept in a mug,

Ah! It made an intense flow of thoughts take over.

Tick tock!

I read through my weavings in cycles.

All checks, checked. I felt I was doing good.

Tick tock!

But after the multiple cycles,

I had Very little an idea on what I was writing.

Tick tock!

Afraid. 'Will this piece lighten my reader's mind?'

'No'. 'Alright, I'll write again'. I told myself.

Tick tock!

I began Scribbling jumbled letters called words.

But with a smooth flow like a stream with direction.

Tick tock!

I began to feel the harmony in these new words.

I Paid attention to getting attention and also make a meaning.

Tick tock!

Ah! With a sip from the glass of wine before me,

I inhaled deeply as I flipped through these stream of words.

Tick tock!

O yes! (With Joy in my heart) 'My ink has done well,

it's time to put forward.' I said to myself.

Tick tock!

I crosschecked the work. Without fear this time.

Checking to see if I'd retouch or alter any word.

Tick tock!

It's time to tell the public of my new work...

I hope they feel what I felt writing this.

This cycle never ends for a writer, it's what would be faced. Enjoy it!
