An empty book.
An empty book.
A Poem by Coyote Poetry
An empty book is a lonely story.
The great writer’s lived their life with gusto and no fear.
You can read in their stories a life filled with sadness and happiness.
Hemingway went to war as a Soldier and a reporter. Learn of death and fear.
Kosinski roamed Europe as a youth learning the truth about the nature of man.
Neruda wrote about love with experience of knowing the paradise of the kiss and tender touch.
Gibran wrote with love and kindness. Trying to teach the world a better way.
We must travel blindly into life and chance with no fear.
Open new doors of friendship. Have long conversation about everything.
Need to dance on the edges of pleasures and take what we can from the gift of love.
Don’t waste words on people who do not want to hear them.
Learn from regret and move on to better places.
Forgive the people who hurt you and try to seek forgiveness from mistakes made.
Great writer’s must live and test life.
Need to swim in the great oceans.
Stand with the clouds on top of the splendor of the powerful mountains.
Walk on sandy beaches.
Hold sweet lovers tightly till morning light.
Don’t surrender to fear.
Good to laugh and cried often.
We create our future and need to ensure we balance our life.
Work and money is part of life. Can’t take worldly things with us.
Love and friendship is what will matter when death is upon us.
A complete book is filled with pleasure, pain and story of family, laughter and
great journey. Today is a new day. Enjoy life. Be kind and make a new friend.

Profound! I think a great writer is the in the subject of most of their writing, to be the adventure, to truly live the human experience. Its the passion felt in script. to be a a part of the story some how and not just on the outside looking in. When you write so good, its like a beautiful memory you live again and again like when you fall in love the first time, or get married, or have a new baby, or your first car, or visit the ocean or new country. Its the experience of the feeling i long for when i write. xo

I agree. Hemingway, Dryden and Kosinski lived in violence times. Their books teach us. I wish our great leaders learn from the past. If you read a book like Flags of our Fathers. God men will not speak of the time in war. We are lucky when writer’s are willing to share their life and thoughts.
