Happy Poetry Day

I   found out about fifteen minutes ago that today is world poetry day. I immediately wrote this poem and have successfully published this before the day ended. I hope you like it...

The sound of a pen scratching, 
Against a sheet, capturing, 
Wisps of thought floating by, 
The joyful and the wry. 

I listen to my mind and heart, 
To its stories, every part,  
To weave a poem so beautiful, 
Heartbreaking and yet colourful. 

To sit in a quiet nook, 
Scribbling in a little book, 
Is the happiest thing to do, 
For me (though I don't know about you). 

And so I shall write all I can, 
For there can be no better plan.
