I saw the little paw print and underneath it said... "Start composing.' What does this mean? The dictionary definition of start is come into being; begin or be reckoned from a particular point in space or time. The dictionary definition of composing is write or create (a work of art, esp. music or poetry). Poetry. Poetry. Poetry? Is this poetry? Not really. Poetry is meant to follow a pattern. This is just rambling. What about music? Don't get me wrong, I like playing the piano or the flute or the saxophone, but is there more to music and poetry than we know? True musicians, they think they know. "We feel the music in our souls, blah blah." To be honest, you can't feel music. You can hear it...is that about it? Start composing...so what does it mean. You know the dictionary definition. My definition is creating a piece of work that you are connected to. That you are proud of. Start composing. What's your definition?
