A notebook is something I always carry,

‘Cause I call myself a writer you see,

When thoughts knock during times unexpected,

I don’t trust my memory, I jot them down instead.

Words, phrases, characters, settings,

And sometimes even random musings,

The things I see whenever I travel,

I map them all for a story or poem to unravel.

The things I write only I can decipher, 

Well! Most do think I’m quite a daydreamer,

Unfortunately, the fear of writer’s block is quite scary, 

During times such, for inspiration my notebook comes in handy.
