Lewis Nyaga Poet Free verse

The Muse

~teddy and the muse~

It looked as a monkey
With a huge bushy tail
It entered the office 
Scarring brother Teddy
It scampered allover 
Teddy offered it a banana
It screeched baring its teeth
I call it a muse for lack
Of a suitable or better name
It was a creature of the forest
Dark and very swift on its legs
Who visited teddy yes a muse
I call it a muse for teddy keeps
Churning out brilliant pieces





(for Teddy)
