The blank page smiles sadly as it waits Waits for some poetry or a story Words not written, it rails against the fates Blank, it waits for the tale to glory Alone, it waits for its author to write How long can the page go on being blank Tick, tock, time files as it waits for a knight Forgotten, the rotted page lies thankless Then, one drizzly day the writer sits down And puts pen to the page; a tale unfolds Life has taken hold. In words it now drowns A glorious story now fills its soul Just a reminder to remember page And quench its thirst for words that do assuage Kelly Rose © May 29, 2026

Assuage the Thirst - 14 lines
The blank page smiles sadly as it waits Waits for some poetry or a story Words not written, it rails against the fates Blank, it waits for the tale to glory Alone, it waits for its author to write How long can the page go on being blank Tick, tock, time files as it waits for a knight Forgotten, the rotted page lies thankless Then, one drizzly day the writer sits down And puts pen to the page; a tale unfolds Life has taken hold.
