What is this thing?

What is this thing that makes me?
What is this thing that can turn history into litany?
What is this thing that makes me cry?
What is this thing that turns weather into words?
Light into sound?
What is this thing?
This thing that has infected me.

What is poetry?

Excellent write Nigel...the emotions that flow to the tip of a pen. I'm ok with that though...I ponder where the emotions come from. ...any answers?? I'm.desperate lol...cos then i.could send them back!! Hugs x

Oh Marion, no idea where the emotions come from and, um, as for sending them back I think that writing poetry is us trying to do exactly that. It's impossible but we keep trying. Ho hum.
Thanks again
Nigel
