To be Jack of all trades But a master of none, As my memory fades Still, some do come. To be master of one Like poetry or art, And know how it's done Is love from the heart. As I stare at the wall Shall inspiration turn up? Does my muse hear me call Will she fill up my cup? So I wait patiently Just for one drop, As she sits next to me Now I can't stop. My pen running wild catching all of my thoughts, Feel like a new born child But still out of sorts. Will this be as brief As I believe it will? At least now I have relief She did return to fill.

Sweet muse revelations this poem is, WW. The creative fire sometimes need the embers to be stoked when it gets low. Wonderful poem, Rick. A fave of mine and a 7 too. Nice double combo for you, friend. Btw ... nothing wrong w/being a jack of all trades. Having a little knowledge of something means have a knowledge base in that area, and you can always learn and increase in that area. Love you always.

Yes, knowledge is like a path up the mountain, we may know the path well but the whole mountain remains a mystery! Thank you for your kind words, RW /|\

Even if she only comes back for one day, we can revel in the poetry she inspires you to write on that day. here's hoping your muse has packed a bag for a long stay. Nicely done Rick

"Feeling like a new born child" says it all. Your rhythm and rhyme here leaves us begging for more. JH

Fresh air! Good idea, Jan, and maybe a walk while I'm at it to clear the mind!

Wonderful little writing. My muse went to sleep in a beautiful down filled bed - alas, nothing to do but wait.
