A Fan For My Muse

I need to write a happy ditty, One that's readable and witty I've been sitting here for ages Scribbling rubbish on pages and pages Muse has fainted; what a pity.

Great cute rhyme Shirley! I've tried to write something more lighthearted but my inner poet is having none of it :)

Thank you, Dilly Dally. Sometimes (often), my mind goes blank, and I cannot think of a thing to write about. I agree with you; it is even more challenging to write a lighthearted poem when the world is in turmoil. Take care, Shirley
