A Plea For Words

A blank sheet of paper,
Awaits the golden pen,
To scribe words of rhyme and verse,
From treasures locked within.

Sweet muse unlock the door,
To imagination's bower,
And let my words flow freely,
As I seek to write this hour.

I find when I try to write I can't. I have to wait for the inspiration to come to me. A fine job here. God Bless, JB

The more I try to write, the more blocked I get as well as frustrated. Sometimes, I just feel like writing but nothing comes. Thank you for your comment, Judy!
