Alternative Point of View

Stuck awaiting Inspiration from your Muse
   There's neither Rhyme nor reason for the Blues
You really haven't a single second to lose
   ~ Consider this Alternative point of view …

Poetry's more a bug that can be caught
   Than it is a 'Muse' which must be sought
Once caught, the bug infuses your will to write
   Poem after poem, throughout the day and night

So true, Gershon! Have you noticed that the more poetry you write, the more you want to write poetry? Love your description of the "Muse." Hugs, Carolyn
