I am a Little Bird.


Don't cry little bird.
Soon the storm will end.
Don't cry little bird.
Soon you'll be able to fly.

Soon the storm will end.
Soon you'll be able to fly.
Soon you’re heart will stop bleeding.
Soon you won't want to die.

Don't bleed little bird.
The pain isn't worth your beauty.
Your innocence will never fade away.
Little bird, don't cry.

Fly little bird.
Fly with your wings of love.
Fly into your lover's embrace.
Fly away from your angst.

Don't let it burn you.
Little bird, be careful.
Little bird, don't you see?
Don't you see your about to fall?

Writer's Voice ~ A New Blog Dedicated to the Writer's Craft.



"What attracts me to creative writing is that such writing is a powerful medium of expressing the human experience; our thoughts, emotions, and our desires expressed through the written word stem from our experiences which shape our perceptions of the world in which we live in. As the writer uses his or her own imagination and creativity to express themselves, the reader catches a glimpse into the writer’s psyche and hopefully takes away either a lesson in what it means to be human and or another way to view the world. With the enhancement of technology, our society has become a largely visual consumer. However, through the use of blogs, the art of writing has not become obsolete, but instead has become amplified through the ability to include pictures, videos, and music to accompany the writer’s words which can then be shared with a larger audience. Throughout my final semester at RIC, I will be exploring how the ability to share writing electronically through the world wide web allows the writer more creative freedom in his or her craft, as well as allows for a wider range of readers."

And thus, the creation of Writer's Voice! As the moderator of the blog, I will be updating the blog regularly with new posts each week. Feel free to follow along, share your own writing, and offer comments. As this is a safe space for writers of all genres to share their work, connect with other writers/readers, and gain feedback, it is advised that all comments be respectful for writing is a personal thing and all offensive verbal attacks will be deleted. 


Other than that; explore, share, connect, and have fun!

Enjoy,
