Final Curtain Call

My ink is running dry
and I want to cry.

My muse isn't well
only time can tell.

It is on life support
all plans must abort.

Now is the time to have a break, your muse will return when you send a whisper to her ear, I need you back here, please return, for you I yearn. Hope you are well dear friend, Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.

Take a break when the muse has flown - Believe me you are not alone - It happens to us all at times when we can’t find free verse or rhyme… Belle

Writer's block can be overcome, but deleting a poem and can't get it back put me in a bad mood.

You will soon dwell in its graces, Alexis. So well said, that many of us feel from time to time.
