Poem Nine of Challenge




                                  I love that silly man of mine

                                      I'm writing this poem

                                            Number nine

                                       Hey, it's a challenge

                                           I'll do my best

                                         To do this is like a

                                                Contest!

                                         My muse was gone,

                                          I feared she died

                                           Abandoned pen....

                                            It's ink all dried

                              But then my mate bid me to write

                               I've all but one to pen tonight

A muse comes; a muse goes; Amusement parks count their dough.

Sometimes the muse likes to slumber and rest for a while... Glad it has awoken..

She certainly has been taking a long nap. I need confidence that things will actually get back to normal. I never have had a year long dry spell like this before.

Yes, I was eying the clock about here. Felt like Cinderella before the strike of twelve!
