i take a step back to refocus
ordinary tasks beckon
i watch silently, attentively
as the rivulets of water splash in the basin
thoughts begin to cascade in
jumbled and incoherent at first
yet sentences start to form
as the words assemble reasonably
quick, let me write that down
to capture the emotions and the intent
conveying my thoughts is such satisfaction
even in the boring routine of the day
I Write Her 
As a poet & writer, one should always have a notebook and pen to hand, but nowadays with very painful hands, affected by arthritis, I now reach for my mobile and voice record my sudden thoughts and ideas. It is a great help. 🙄

Sorry to hear that, Carolyn. Yes, you are right. I also use my mobile to record especially when a thought strikes when I’m driving or in the middle of the night. 🙂
