Pensive

My pen is having an off day It refuses to write It didn't consult the hand To ask if this was alright The hand said the pen "You are such a pain." Who do you think you are? You are not the Brain!

Glad it made you smile, Gershon. Maniac, I think, is more fitting. Take care, Shirley

Happens too often when the muse leaves us. Then a sudden burst and you start writing.

That's so true, Victor, It helps to keep old minds ticking over, doesn't it? I hope you are feeling as well as possible and looking after yourself. Take care, Shirley
