The Nightbound Poetess Ponders

I love, love to write poetry, period!
    I can find tons of inspiration, myriads!

    A Muse? I have none, and no dappled unicorn either.
    Poets might declare, oh my, she has a fever?

    Both Muse and unicorn~ as helpful as egg beaters.
    Or lovers who are just plain cheaters!

    Just get strong coffee, my pen, great music and paper.
    Add a lifetime of experiences and my time in theater.

   Drama, joy, comedy, sorrow, what more do I need?
   I start writing, it foments a grand ocean of speed.

   Ah, yes to learn that divine art of true classical poetry.
   You see, my friends, my poetic road is carved out for me!

Dear Darlene..0h, my, I have much to learn. To be true to myself is first, to write classically is my second goal. To acknowledge others, is part of my game plan... Hugs, Pangie xx

Hi Bob, I don't think I am that fascinating. LOL But it provides a great background. I am not here to entertain the troops. Others are great at that. Not me. Thank you Pangie
