My Muse and Me

My Muse and Me

When compelled to write I ask my muse
To give me inspiration please
Select the words for me to use
Together then we write with ease.

To give me inspiration please
I take my pen, her words process
Together then we write with ease
When written down will reassess.

I take my pen, her words process
A subject matter comes to mind
When written down will reassess
Correct and change some words I find.

A subject matter comes to mind
Shall then begin to take my time
Correct and change some words I find
Take care, ensue my words all rhyme.

Shall then begin to take my time
Together with my muse agree
Take care, ensure my words all rhyme
Be thankful that that my muse is me.
