Greetings, following a little situation that needed looking after this past week, I am back with a little Poem that comes from a combination of memory and an over active creative mind set to write poetry. Whether a Poem is of good quality or not, It will be placed here as per usual.
I grew up in a small country town, where a few minutes walk in any direction and one could be surrounded in countryside. But also noticable for this area are the hills that surround the town, sadly I could never write the names on print here, because the vast majority of people will never be able to pronounce nor understand the names. This is becasue of a mixture of Old Irish (Gaelic Language) words or pronouncing of words, or indeed anglicized verions of old words that may have been in Old Irish (Gaelic). Thus I try to avoid putting them on print as much as possible, for reasons I stated.
Todays Poem, comes from a little of memory growing up and a whole lot of creative mind full of imagination. The result is what you can read below. Whether a poem written or composed in this way results in a good poem or one not so good, Matters little to me, it is composing poetry for the love of it. If on occasions this brings a great poem for folks to read, would be an extra honour.
About The Poem:
From a mind of creativity and imagination one could bring out a flow of poetic ideas that may result in a poem to display here and write what I can on what brings such a poem to being. yet this one comes after a week of an issue that needed looking after and a back injury that needed rest. Thus, lots of time doing nothing, brings a great hunger to get Poetic words out there and also a hope that a little Poem comes together along with this.
Such is the case with this Poem, Starting in memory growing up in a country town, combined with Over actiuve imagination and one has a Poem that may or may not result in a good Poem or maybe less than that. I shall let it to readers to decide that for themselves.
But nothing could be written to further explain this poem, except it was a little fun for me digging into a creative imagination for something like this. I hope that it results in more enjoyment for readers also.
Having said all of this; Please Enjoy This Poem:

Star Of The Forest Sky
Still Strolling by these old roads,
That yet carry the same old loads.
Where memories reside inside,
The chasms of my mind to hide.
I recall roaming o’er the hills,
Where once I called home, life then spills.
There she wandered often, at ease,
Beneath such trees, alike the seas.
Life’s own renegade running free,
Society ne’er her decree.
Awkward and mild yet running wild,
A lonely child, thus yet self styled.
She frowned at childhood games and schemes,
Lost in a world that killed her dreams.
Cities or towns ne’er could confine,
A jewel, nature would assign.
Where goes that star of the forest sky,
Did nature make this child comply.
Or she inspire another one,
To outrun what she once begun?

ENDING THOUGHTS:
Thank you for following me on my little journey, that is composing or writing poetry. If Life is a journey which we all walk on and my journey in creating Poetry is a journey of it’s own. Which I still learn much on as I write.
At times I experiment on methods or way how I can improve my poetry, therefore getting feedback is always most welcome for such as these.
When I write poetry, some readers may be offended with something within the poetry. I do not write to offend, But such are written for reasons I outline in the posts. Often I miss typos and mistakes when publishing each poem. BUT I correct the moment I discover such mistakes.
But Poetry is a form of art work that I enjoy and thus using it in a manner to touch or inspire the reader.
Thank you for joining me on this journey.
Poetry is a learning curve where I always work to improve. A lot of work goes into editing and reediting and then repeating that process on a number of occasions until I am happy with the result. This is how I operate in creating posts to share here.
Please forgive for any such mistakes and for your understanding this.
