How many ways Can you write of one topic? There is a limit to each one Your inspiration May be a re-wording Of a theme someone's already done...........so true. Yes, there is limit to each one. A beautiful poem with poet's note is being nicely executed.
I know what you mean. Nothing new under the sun. And yet, we can put old things in a fresh way, not so? I think that's what we all try to do. And come up mad sock-eating society poems and suchlike. That reminds me - you should read my Liliputian Invasion.
Many thanks, Laurie! Will try to hunt down your Liliputian Invasion! :)
I have often felt this way but eventually something fresh pops out.
Barry, thank you for confirming what I only realized AFTER posting this poem and Poet's Notes! Immediately afterward, I smacked my forehead as I remembered my nonsensical children's poem The Mad Sock-Eating Society. A fictitious, highly -imaginative poem that came from only my imagination. Also, my 1940's- sounding, jazzy-lyrical Crazy 'bout you. I wasn't even born yet in the 1940's! That was my parents' time, not mine. Have a wonderful day today!
What you write is debatable, but at least partly true. Sure, there are limits to what you can write about a subject. Brilliant.
