Creating--By David Fox--United States

Creating

In a cozy café
Of soft repose
I write a harmony
of original and
aesthetic masterpieces
In rhythm with the rain.

  1. This reads like a dedication, which in a way, I suppose, it is...
    I am very impressed that you wrote it, David, but even more so, that this is your thought process. I mean that in the best of ways.

  9. "A cozy cafe/of soft repose" is not only a nice image, David, but also a harmonious sound.

  10. Thank you, Gerald Heyder, for the following--

    Dear David, your poem "Creating"is short, sweet, and to the point! Yes, rain does have rhythm to it, and it can be conducive to composing verse. Do you remember a song from the 1960's by the Cascades called "Rhythm and the Falling Rain?"

    Short and sweet, speaks volumes with minimal words. Reminds me of devices I sue for inspiration.

    A writer writing poetry in a cafe perhaps with friends sitting at a table with him maybe giving him ideas to what to write about.
