Apologies To Friends Here- Not a Poem:

To all the friends I have met on PoetrySoup, I have been very negligent on reading; commenting, and writing as of late. I am going on vacation and so have been preparing and planning while working, but I hate to use the phrase "I haven't had time", for i truly enjoy the times spent reading such wonderful poems. But this trip is most important to me. I am going to meet, not my ego or id, but my true real flesh and blood Muse that I've often referred to as mi Musa. When I return I'm hoping that I will be super charged lol and be so inspired that I will send tsunamis of poetry flooding this site. Perhaps you might want to start building an arc lol. Thank all of you that have taken your time to read my poetry. Also to others that have commented on my poetry. And especially to the poets that have also inspired me with their words. Sincerely, j l connelly

Maureen it seems that you are the only one that believes in "true" reality. Thank you so much, and Melissa was touched. So I quick whipped up the other ones lol. (There might be a "fourth movement", and a 5th to complete the symphony lol.) ALWAYS FOREVER thank you Maureen. You truly believe.

Jeff i hope you have a great holiday and come back with your muse fully re-charged. I didn't write for a month from November until December - various reasons but if the muse is not willing it is pointless forcing poetry. :-) take care, and Bon voyage:-) hugs jan xx

Jan??? I'm going to visit my muse. Why would I want to bring her back here??? My muse is a REAL PERSON!!! I can write anytime I want, but she is in my mind. EVERYONE HERE thinks a muse is part of YOUR persona. Well good for you. I'm sorry lo siento you had a bad day mal dias, but YOU seem to be your own muse. Mi Musa is by dammit by god a real live human being; separate from myself, but she INSPIRES me... lowly me...
