There's More To Life Than Work & Dollars: My Lost Pelikan Pen

Mike in Tucson: poetryWho carries a fountain pen anymore?

I lost this one somewhere in California on a business trip.  I miss it; it was my favorite pen.

Words bounce around in my head, and sometimes come together as a poem.  When that happens, it's magical.  I don't know any other word to describe the feeling when the thoughts take form in words, and flow across the page.

The Active Rain group POETS is one that I haven't frequented often enough, and I intend to correct that starting with this post.

If there's poetry in your soul, click the group link and sign up!

There's more to life than work and dollars.
