Jan Allison Poet Rhyme

Notes About The Poem

Missing Muse

Has anyone seen my muse -
I think she’s gone on a world cruise
One where there’s plenty of booze
Then she can have a long snooze!

Why has she run away to sea
I’m searching for her constantly
I’m feeling really unhappy
Please can someone help me?

If you find her, please send her back
Then I’ll be fine and on the right track
I’ll take her out in my Cadillac
And confiscate her spotty knapsack!

Then my muse won’t be free to roam
She will have to stay with me here at home
So I won’t be left all alone to moan
And I’ll write poems in a massive tome

Rhonda Johnson-Saunders February 6, 2017 at 10:54 AM Hi Jan, I love this...me thinks my muse and your muse were bar hopping and crusing together! Hopefully, they're headed home, no permanent damage done. L&B, Rhonda Jan Allison February 7, 2017 at 4:37 PM Rhonda how lovely to see you again - lets get those muse's sober and writing again - i've seen many poems lately saying people's muses were missing and this prompted my poem:-) hugs Jan xx

Demetrios Trifiatis February 6, 2017 at 10:16 AM Dearest, Jan, a poet's muse would never leave the poet that inspires no matter what, unless the poet himself for some reason is not as enthusiastic as before! Once the poet's soul is on fire the muse is the first to rejoice! You, my dear friend, are an inexhaustible source of inspiration! Jan Allison February 7, 2017 at 4:37 PM Many thanks Demetrios ... this poem was inspired by seeing poems recently where people said their muses were missing:-) hugs Jan xx

Carolyn Devonshire February 6, 2017 at 10:07 AM LOL You had me giggling throughout thee poem. Writers' block is a genuine problem, but you approached it in a delightfully witty way. Great work! Hugs, Carolyn Jan Allison February 7, 2017 at 4:38 PM Many thanks Carolyn I was inspired by seeing other's say their muse was missing:-) hugs Jan xx
