Kennedy Letters from Letterkenny

In my head i picture myself a great author, a grand one, famous even, ever so loved

But reality strikes a different view

It is hard to be a famous author when you don’t write anything

It’s almost like words cannot fail you if you indeed are an author of note

So where are my words?

Have they graced a page and crossed into another’s mind?

I am a famous author with an audience of one, perhaps two if the eyes reading this aren’t the very ones in the head of the body with the hands that wrote this.

Though if i am honest with myself i actually don’t wish to be a famous author

But i would settle for having written something of note

Where someone other than myself thinks it a meaningful contribution to the world, the time, a place, a thing

Simply i just wish to write.

To put words to page

To have those words be thoughtful ones, meaningful ones, lasting ones that resonate with someone else somewhere else sometime else

Perhaps this can be made to a reality

If only there was a way to make it so

Perhaps i should write this down.
