All Things Can Tempt Me
All things can tempt me from the verse I need to write:
Even the dishes can sway me from my plight.
The rain, it’s lashing hard upon the window pane.
It’s stopped - I’ll write. No! There it goes again.
Could it be I’m too tired? Could it be I’m bored?
Once again, I discover, I’m worryingly flawed!
The suns too hot. Far too hot I do declare,
It’s doing absolutely nothing for my creative flair.
The paper is still blank, the nothingness a clue,
Too many things tempt, just between me and you!!
