A Smile on the Page

     In the wee hours
        the muse taps me 
     on my shoulder

     How ‘bout some music
        ‘fore the night grows older

      Music to stir the soul
         music to loosen the ink
      to make my pen dance 

      To put a smile on the page
         no matter the hour or age
