About This Poem

The Muse Has Gone

I think I may write, but of what I am not sure
It could a be a love verse or one not so pure
I think I would like to write a verse on love and life
But it gets so hard and can be full of such strife

What can I write for this new one-to-one
My thoughts are dried up, and now they are gone
The muse she has left me, what am I to do?
I will just send these lines, as they are now to you.

Please do not judge me, if I get it wrong
But this is a breeze, I may now write a song
A song of love or a song on what will be will be?
Come muse I beg, send a new thought down to me.

No I am not there yet, I can’t think of a new one
So I give up on this piece that was for the one-to-one.
I will do the next one when I know what to say
So this is the end of it, I will send this one your way.

    The lack of muse amuses, though at times, the lack is not funny at all. Good luck in the contest.

    There are a couple of things which will help with writing in meter, most of the forms we are using..use iambic meter all this means is there is and [unstressed {syllable} & a STRESSED {syllable}] so 1 syllables words are obviuosly easier to figure out & usually it is the noun that is emphasized [the CAT] unstressed STRESSED. [unstressed/STRESSED = 1 iamb =metrical foot] [the CAT]

    [the RAIN][ in SPAIN] [falls MAIN][ly ON] [the PLAIN]..it has to sound like a clock tick/TOCK, tick/TOCK, tick/TOCK, tick/TOCK, tick/TOCK...so if you can't sing the rain in spain to your line it's probably not iambic meter :)
