To My Fellow Poets

Here I am alone with pen and paper in front of me You know the feeling You sit there and pray that the Muse will speak to you The Muse may come today A fiery time of creation may be emerging Or the muse may be silent Leaving us lost in front of a sheet of blank paper Fellow poets Do not despair! For the Muse knows who you are And will appear when most needed as always

True, although, mine seems to enjoy keeping me awake at night, writing and painting. Enjoyed.
