Jan Allison Poet Lyric

Notes About The Poem

Missing Muse Blues

Every day, every day I got the blues
Some days so bad I lose my muse
I seek her here, I seek her there –
She’s abandoned me; she doesn’t care

To lose your muse is not good news
But she tires some days and needs a snooze
My poor old muse is in need of a break
I hope she returns or my heart will ache

Every day, every day I got the blues
Some days so bad I lose my muse
I seek her here; I seek her there –
She’s abandoned me; she doesn’t care

I give my muse some time to rest
Wrap her up warm in my thermal vest
She snuggles up in comfort, and over time
Happy thoughts return to this muse of mine

Every day, every day I got the blues
But my muse is content she’s had a snooze
Harmony returns, it’s such a happy day
My muse has returned from her holiday

James Fraser June 15, 2015 at 4:19 PM So love the title Jan, and yes, is there a Muse hiding place that needs to be discovered. I loved to write 'Story Poems' and I haven't for quite a while now. Please point me in the right direction to the muse hideaway, hugs // James xx Jan Allison June 15, 2015 at 4:35 PM I wrote this about 3 weeks ago at the blues festival I attended - wrote 4 poems sitting in the sunshine ... my advice go out see some live music and be inspired - but do allow your muse to have a rest too - even it needs to recharge its batteries from time to time:-) Hugs jan xx

Judy Konos June 13, 2015 at 8:18 PM Very nice, ironically be kind of humorous if your muse turned out o be a he rather than a she.... Jan Allison June 14, 2015 at 8:04 AM LOL it is a possibility Judy lol - my dad always wanted a boy - sadly he got me the next best thing lol:-) Hugs jan xx
