Hello Muse

Oh Muse wake up from your hibernation I know it is bleak and grey outside and crystalline snowflakes are falling but I have writing to do and I need you I will just give you a gentle slap hello Muse . . . The river is frozen over like a mirror snow drapes all the bare tree branches and I am dreaming in verses why are you being so distant and hiding I will just give you a soft nudge hello Muse . . . I know Muse that you usually come unbidden but I need your help with my bottled up words so lift your sleepy head and lets write for I am drowning in swirling verses you asked for it so here it comes- SLAP oh, hello Muse . . . Lets take a deep breath, a pause I am holding my pen, Muse, just waiting for the curtain of beauty to open my mind is flitting like a dizzy moth oh, do give me a moment, Muse, Muse hello Muse ?? (are you sleeping, again) there you are with your hush so soft like a spiders web- a blanket of words and the depth of my tears and heart weep from my pen as blood dripping Muse, now I am writing free . . . _______________________ January 5, 2019 Poetry/Free Verse/ hello MUSE Copyright Protected, ID 19- 1101-243-02 All Rights Reserved.

If poems were horses.. would yours be wild mavericks, or destriers, or thoroughbreds? I see all of these qualities in your poetry -- a certain freedom, deep strength, and high polish... WOW. Just Great!
