About This Author
My name is Joy, and I love to write.
Why poetry, here? Because poetry uplifts its writer, and if she is lucky enough, her readers, too. Around us, so many objects abound to write about. Once a poet starts with a smallest, most trivial object, he shall discover that his pen will spill out what is most delicate or most majestic hidden inside him. Since the classics sometimes dealt with lofty subjects with a lofty language, a person with poetry in his soul may incline to emulate that. That is understandable. Poetry does that to a person: it enlarges the soul and gives it wings. Yet, to really soar, a poet needs to take off from the ground.

No More Blank Page!
Prompt:
Use these words in your entry: blank, margin, definition, startle, maneuver, roads, and click.

No More Blank Page!
I sit at my desk relaxed, since I'm in no rush
but a *blank page waits in a *margin's hush
then suddenly I *startle, my thoughts take flight
I swiftly *maneuver on a *road of light
no clear *definition yet, but the ink flows free
I let the keyboard *click for lines to be
many twists and turns, and my words are in place
such a shock, for a poem's born with a yucky face
