Thanks PML for your thoughtful comment. I have been more fond of poetry since my cancer diagnosis. I have jot down words & sentences on a note pad occassionally. Seldom, I suffer from insomnia. I'll grab my cellphone and write poetry in my notes section. Do you like creative writing?

You are entirely welcome! I'm so sorry that you have cancer. I'll say a prayer for you. God will get you through it!
I do like creative writing. I'm like you as far as putting notes down and then creating a poem from them later. I'm 79 and have been writing all my life and even have been published quite a few times. However writing usually isn't the best way to make a living unless you write a book that becomes a best seller. I prefer to write my poems about real instances such as the poem I wrote about 9/11/01 entitled, "Heaven is crowded tonight." I'm working on another poem entitled "Saturday night at the Maple Brook Tavern". I actually went to the Maple Brook Tavern in my 20's and had a good time!
Keep writing! You are very good at it.
PML
