a poem in ten minutes, very simple but true.
well I will have to save that one and put in my post, thanks for the inspiration.
Little red wheel barrow
I remember you
When you were playing with my child
Little barrow full of sand
I can still see
Carrying sand from the pit
My little red wheel barrow
I have your photo
With my child standing by
My sweet little barrow
I won’t forget
The many hours you spent playing
Sweet little barrow
I still smile
When I see you with my boy
Little red barrow
Full of sorrow
Do you remember my child?
Little red barrow
Full of sorrow
will you forgive the little boy?
little red barrow
full of sorrow
the little boy left the sandpit
Little red barrow
Full of sorrow
Go meet my boy in heaven
He misses you
Little sweet barrow
Full of sorrow.

Your poem was a good idea, I will keep it in mind.
Actually I am seldom short of ideas, come check my blog and you will see what I mean, do I sound like I am bragging? I never said I was good. Having to feed the blog machine every day is a bit of a chore at times, but it is amazing what you can come up with when you try. Blogging forces me to write every day which can only be a good thing for my writing. I have covered just about every topic under the sun except for wheelbarrows, but I feel a poem coming, I already have a strong clear picture in my mind, it is a matter of translating it into words, other times it is a first line, and the rest of the poem seems to fall out on the page. Other times it is painful and it just does not flow. Well there you have it. This is how I work, are you a professional writer? I write in an extremely simple way, almost like a child. English is my second language but it does not bother me at all and I hardly notice it. I don't think other people pick it up either. It might be slightly different I am not sure.
