Quick As a Wink

When looking at an empty page And it seems that gone is the sage Grab your camera and go for a walk Be it morning, noon or dusk In the morning look at the dew See what is reflected and take a few If at noon time and raindrops abound See if there are some on plants around Be it at dusk when there is faint light Catch shots of critters running out of sight' When surrounded by dark and none's around Use the flash and ghost may be found That should fill a few pages by a sage Down through the long, long ages Keep in touch with pen and ink Take those pictures quick as a wink

Good write. Good form. THE thing to do when the muse is lying low. I don't use the camera. I usually do something boring like going to the grocery store or editing one of my novels. Love, daver

Nicely written. nice advice. Thanks for you comments on Judge Judy. I agree she good at spotting liars, however she talks down to these people. Even tho they are criminials and may be lying thru their teeth she is a judge and shouldn't lower herself to their level by talking down to them.Talk with respect even tho they may not deserve it. Set an example.
