Then it came suddenly!

Evolution is a slow progression

Resonates with what was experienced

The earlier period of blogging was a breeze

Glided the surface with no freeze

Touched on many instances 

Automatically the inertia enhances

A start was made with a blog created

To write prose on life’s events that transpired

It smoothly rode the storm

Facts and figures made their appearance

Were noted revamped and posted

Most were those emotions related

That touched on laughter and tears

Propped up with photographs

That brought back wonderful memories

of travels events and childhood prowess

Records of sorts for posterity

More than just the annual writing of diaries

But relating with others in blogosphere

A whole new horizon unlike before

Then it came suddenly

Not so much a writer’s block

But the arsenal slowly dried up

Ran smack against the desire to write

Unproductive and stressful

Lingered in the wilderness for months

Nothing written to no end

The blog stopped functioning

Conscience bore the brunt

Of the inaction

Then it came suddenly

An unlikely discovery

Of a love for poetry

A separate poetry blog was created

A blogging urge satiated

A friendly community provided the incentive

Hooray! back in business and relatively active

Prompts galore provided unselfishly

By those schooled in rudiments of creativity

Case in point are new forms presented

Haiku in particular so also Free Verse

devoid of rhyming constraints so obvious

not to be outdone micro fiction and limericks

To conveniently help hone the tricks

One can easily write a poem daily

Can unwittingly chalk up a respectable number

To be compiled into a book at the end of the year

Written for Anthony Desmond's hosting at d'Verse to recount

one's evolution in poetry
