“What will I write of next?” by Jeanie Axton

The pen flew up in the air

A pencil followed next

the stapler did a little jig

across the writing desk

 

The ruler stomped his wooden feet

A window opened wide

Then all the pretty writing paper

rose up and blew outside

 

The writer sat and pondered

What will I write of next?

With all this chaos going on

here on my writing desk

  1. Thanks Jeanie for this glimpse into an unruly desk – does your desk truly get messy when you write? I prefer to write on scruffy pieces of recycled paper. If everything is too clean and tidy, the writing doesn’t happen!
