Like a pen striking words on a paper
The first draft there is much to write
But in the second there is discipline
As words are omitted to drive the point.
In the ensuing edits
There is order and structure
Helping matter get the message
In the conveyance of the creativity.
Like in art so in life
The dance goes on
Sometimes making a point
At times lost in translations.
The mood and setting may change
The course of improvisations
Sometimes blatantly
At times in all subtlety.
In depths of consciousness awareness
Arrive valuable insights
On spacing or styling
On perfecting the portraying
On emotions conveyed
On composition and construction
On overall content
Until the points are perfected
To express openly
Relentless as is our thoughts
Such is way of the words
Our imagination is infinite
All pervasive and expansive
And in all that’s said and done
There is much left unsaid
And yet while the words flow on
The dance goes on…

Beautifully written, Savvy❤️ I could relate it with the way I write✨ If I had planned to jot down 1000 words, my final draft would have only 10 words out it. Surprisingly, there would be 500 more new words in the final version, that I would have never imagined to pen down! “The Dance of the words”- well chosen title 🌸

Yes I understand Roshna, Thank you for your sharing your reflections as a writer.
At times creativity is like a whiff in the wind, you gotta catch it before the drift.
And at other times it surges like a waterfall seamlessly. Wouldn’t you agree?
As far as the dance of the words
Somewhere along the way
In between and betwixt the lines
When creativity conveys itself
From the soul of the writer
It touches the heart of the reader.❤

I totally agree with you Savvy.
At times mind cannot have control over creativity. The beauty not only lies in its outcome but also the way every reader receives.
