I Almost Wrote a Poem
I almost wrote a poem
I nearly did it today
inspiration took hold
then very quickly
slid
away
I grabbed hold of a pen
but alas, it was too late
my poem had erased
like chalk dust
from a slate
and now I'm left bereft
at the loss of charming verse
but at least I've written this -
so I guess it could be worse!
