It
may
happen
when your brain
gets confused and
you're out of rhyme
or don't have much time
or your heart's not in it so you
give it a try and your get up and go
gets up and says 'bye.' When inspiration
has decided to flee, don't take the flight so
personally. There's always something to give
you a lift, some magical way to steer
through life's twists. Just remember
those poets from olden days found
their inspiration missing in
a troublesome haze...
when the rhyming muse is
nowhere to be found and
words that used to flow
sink underground,
just keep the faith and
before you know it you're back
to being a full-fledged poet. Believe
in yourself and your gifts are enough to
show everyone you still have the write stuff.
