I'm writing too much.
I really don't brag!
I'm on a ******
Full on writer's jag!
I know I should stop
Or at least slow down,
But I'm having such fun!
Why should I frown?
I'm writing so much
I guess it's not fair,
The poems I write
Just don't go anywhere!
But I don't want the laurels
I don't want to trend,
What diff does it make
To me in the end?
There are many times
When my muse doesn't stay
She packs up her baggage
For long holidays!
So should I keep notebooks?
For these wintery ruts?
Store my poems up
Like a squirrel with nuts?
If I kept a notebook
It'd sure get right fat!
Cause, folks, you inspire!
It's as simple as that!
So here I am.
Poets, what should I do?
I certainly don't want
to alienate you!
If I stop writing
And posting them
I'll set aside notebooks
And take the cap off my pen.
I'll just keep up
The ideas seized
I won't be so eager
And wanting to please...
So here I go
My hat I do doff!
I'll be a good site friend...
... and just toddle off!
