We Connect and UnConnect and then Connect again
People ask me where the poems come from
I tell everyone the same thing
They just appear, a word, a fragment, a feeling
Then I always say, "I've got to write that"
Hence a poem is born
We fall out of touch for a long time
It was many years ago when we knew the glory
Lovers can go away though for years
Only to reconnect again with the passion of self
That allows real friendship to evolve
I love drinking alcohol
Not wine, though I enjoy an occasional glass
Not beer, though with spicy food what could be better
I love spirits, this past year has been bourbon
I never get drunk, it's about the burn and the glow
There are other things going on
I won't go into details at the moment
Spring is around the corner
Morning light wakes me up early
Rebirth my old friend, extending my hand and heart
I tell everyone the same thing

Ah. Another Spring Hatchling shaking the egg. I agree with your fragment, word, and/or thought birthing a poem. They're like embryos gestating in our subconscious, and if nurtured a poem is born.
I'm a red wine person myself, mostly Malbec. I do love a cold corona (don't forget the lime) in the heat of summer. A good port with after dinner cheese plate. And warm brandy as a night cap. Talk about burn and glow. But hardly anyone does that anymore.
Ha! This poem was refreshing in many ways. A true reflection of Spring, Poet.

the first stanza is perfection. I am sure most poets / writers can identify with those sentiments :-)
Like much :-)

Sometimes life is as simple as the way you showed glimpses of and yet we try to make it complicated, asking, probing, wondering..while we miss the journey. love it PS..lets have some coffee and enjoy the moment.

'it's about the burn and the glow'
Now there's a verse
worthy of poetic companionship,
and even perhaps,
another poem ...
much love to my Speak

All things ebb and flow regardless of which category they may fall into and you....well...you have a way of getting them all in there in a way where each of us can relate to more than just one...

Yes, I'll write something and put it away and then come back to it and tweak it a little.
