I like this Sara. Wonderful imagery. This is a new form to me...I'll have to check it out:) Yes my muse is missing in action, no idea where she's at lol. My poetry drought seems to be ending...yeah! And yes most writers do experience this at some time or another...and perhaps more than one episode:( Main thing is, the writing/poetry returns!
