They say it's harder to write after taking a break,

But the reason for the break in the hiatus makes it easy.

A person, situation, or a time itself,

Any one of the three can win over the lazy,

The busy, the evasive writer, hating the pen,

Feigning lack of time, talent, temperament.

Avoiding lack of courage, care and commitment.

The treason of the break in the pattern makes it easy.

If only the stories of the person overflow the mind,

If only the emotions of the situation act as a guide,

If only the truth of the time help us realize,

That the pen is the tongue when ears aren't nearby.

That the pen is the ear who hears what's been shunned,

That the pen are the feet who run

Making patterns that talk, tell stories, paint paintings.
