Thank you Clara,
for giving me the inspiration.



When i start to scribble

I wrote this in response,
To a poem that clara wrote.
Her poetry,
will always get my vote.

In reality,
Clara Mae Gregory.
Light shines brighter,
Then you'd think.

As for me;

When I start to scribble,
as my mind dribbles.
That poem's inconceivable,
come into my tiny mind.

I only write for my love of poetry.

Every night i reach out,
to make sure my carols near me.
Without that I couldn't sleep,
because i love her dearly.
