Inspired by this post on “Notes from the Slushpile”, here is my resolution on writing.
I have decided to write
I have decided to write,
In spite of the
Impending flight,
The family fight,
And the nasty dog-bite.
I have decided to create,
Despite the
New first date,
The Sunday fete,
And the lack of a due date.
I have decided to write
Even though
There will be rewrites,
Many long late nights,
And rejections outright.
I have decided to write
Because I am a writer.
Absolutely wonderful! Brilliant poem, Chitra!
