I Confused My Muse

My missing muse is experiencing self-imposed blues. She's probably under some yonder weeping willow tree .... making friends, again, with my inadequacies. My cognitive skills often ruffle-stuff her confused. She's long held my sorry that sorry's all I can do .... just like my waiting and praying to grow us both through. My best grab, my muse, is that we laugh. That's all I have, still, please come back. ... CayCay Jennings Decemer 9, 2017

CayCay, I've heard a number of people complaining lately about their "missing" muse. As for your cognitive skills...I think both are probably attributable to being preoccupied with the season. I'm sure things will return to normal soon. I enjoyed your cute little poem. John

She came back tonight, my muse - she came back in the middle of an engaging TV show. You never know. Glad you enjoyed my mini-musing 'bout my muse! All the best ... CayCay

My dearest CayCay, your muse might be taking a snooze but your humor and wit are as charming and enticing as ever, and this write proves it my creative and lovely friend. Your muse will be home before you know it.. Love, hugs and smile to you! ~Susan

My muse came back, quick as a flash, during an engaging TV show. Aint that life! I keep looking for a "Susan" write, but it is of no matter so long as you are finding joy in your days. Thanks for cheer leading, very sweet. SNOW it did, 2 days ago. I did not mean to write a newsy message in this forum! Hugs ... CayCay

You are a dear. This is just sweet as can be. Your muse is certainly alive and well. Hugs, dear.

You are the dear, I am the confused one, I feel like a squirrel looks trying to cross a busy street. I agree, my muse is alive, but not so well at the moment. She's puny at best, but only a guess because I haven't seen her yet. Good to see you, love the pic! Smiling and so purpley - good look for you, for me to look at! Love to you ... CayCay

Hi, Sweetheart. My cognitive skills failed me in the alliteration contest. Despite, as always, reading directions over and over, I was sure it called for 4 lines, max of 8 syll per line - no, no - it was 8 syllables MINIMUM. Thank you for relating even though you aren't likewise brain damaged! Stay that way. I love you ... CayCay
