This is by no means a masterpiece and it's not meant to be one. I just wrote a simple poem while eating breakfast. Tell me what you think.

A blank page.
White, like ice,
glinting
In the dead of night.

A full pen.
Still, like a loner,
impatient,
yearning for a purpose.

A tired poet.
Thoughtful like a scholar
waiting
for the words to flow.

This poem has clear meaning, and I love how you thought of it whilst eating breakfast. This is well thought out and carefully rhymed, in such a way that I can almost feel writers block upon me. Excuse me for saying so, but I was quite disappointed it was so short. Try to make it longer next time, and add depth and emotion unto it.

Polar Bear,

I like it actually, I think you were quite hard on yourself in the description.. Not every poem has to solve world hunger! And I think this one is great. Just correct me if I'm wrong here, but is this poem about writers block?
I thought your poem was actually really well composed, and it's short and sharp style made it quite easy and enjoyable to read. I found your descriptive language exceptional, and it made me smile as I read it - because I was just thinking about how a pen must feel when it isn't being used. I also loved how the third line of every stanza was just a single word, I thought that added a great effect to the poem. Overall, just keep up your writing, you're a really great writer! I thought maybe the title of the poem was a bit inappropriate, even though it is mentioned in the poem. Perhaps 'The tools of a poet' or 'The Struggles of a poet.' I don't know. But just keep up the good work polar bear!

Good luck

not a masterpiece, but still a work of art! It has a everyday life feel to it. Like, say, you were just eating breakfast. (haha) Anyway I get a homey kind of feel from this poem which is really quite nice and makes me want to smile.
