Poems
Jul 2015
I don't have a poem today.
I'm waiting for the "block" to break.
My pen is filled with ink.
Nothing seems to come to mind.
I can barely think.
My rhymes have just meandered
Out the kitchen door.
Inspiration took a day off.
My life's become a bore.
The headlines don't excite me.
The president didn't call.
The queen did not invite me.
There was no mail at all.
The pope just went fishing.
Congress is on a break.
My lottery tickets have disappeared
And I can't stay awake.
I guess I'll stay in bed all day
And enjoy a lengthy nap
And maybe have a dream or two
To get me back on track.
I don't have a poem today
Or wait... I think I do...
I'll call it "I don't have a poem today."
And foist it all on you!
