The Muse

The other eve I met a muse, her eyes peered through the night. Of subtleties she did abuse, and thus she’d found her might. I beckoned her inspire me, she turned with kind reply, Took a seat beneath a tree, a twinkle in her eye. She spun a tale that’d rival bards’, and gazed into the moon Lost me deep with lies in cards, on a solemn night in June. Up she sprang into the night, Tardy she must be. She was not far gone out of sight, When I realized she was me.
