My Interests

POETIC FLOW ~This poetic flow that I have, My pen to the paper, Damn I’m bad, The words just guide, From my hand to the pad.It’s like a thought unfinished, Until my hand and wrist get to itching, Then the words flow out so slick, so smooth, Like my personality, so very COOL.It just hits me like a flash of light, That’s when I begin to write, Rhyming words and phrases, Always giving praises.I don’t know how I got it, Where it came from, But I take my pen and paper, And with a thought I run.Writing words as they come to mind, Never hesitating, just writing my rhymes, I don’t know how it happens, but one thing I do know, God has blessed me, with this Poetic Flow…Written By, Yolanda "Yo" Jackson a/k/a Poetic Flow Copyright © 2007, 2008 – Poems That Flow For Your Mind and Your Soul; Poetic Flow Poetry For Your Soul.
