WRITER’S BLOCK: A contrast

WRITER’S BLOCK: A contrast

[Does writer’s block affect all writers? Do poets suffer from it?]



I don’t know what’s writer’s block,
So often I hear such talk.

The story writers gifted,
Are the ones thus afflicted.

Not able to fabricate,
A tale, they get desperate.

Poets are not thus hampered.
They are, by Nature, pampered

Scenes and sounds, colours, fragrance,
Abound in their ambience.

A fleeting gesture poignant,
Is a poem next moment!
