Louise, The Dogs And The Words

Across a distant ocean A mystical island lies And if you ever go there  You won't believe your eyes Animals both big and small Dance and sing and play You can hear their music And watch them as they sway The elephants trumpet loudly As the cricket chirp a beat The parrots squawk and sing As the hippos stomp their feet The crabs click their claws As the monkeys chitter chatter The slithering snakes hiss As the pangolins' scales clatter The flamingos pirouette As the zebras tap dance proudly The ostritch spins upon the spot As the tigers roar so loudly A cacophony of noises From a most peculiar band Such beautiful colours and sound On this magical animal land This is a poem I've written just this minute, right before bed when my imagination begins to fire up. I hope it gives you beautiful dreams.

A spark, a jolt It his my brain The creativity  Flows again Sometimes I simply Wait and stare The page is blank The page is bare Sometimes it flows Like a babbling brook Becoming poem,  Song, or book Quietly I wait  With expectation  Hoping for  Some inspiration I pray the words Will come to me In a spark  Of creativity
