I want to write tonight
But my muse has taken flight

Can’t blame her you see
My life is quite boring 

The highlight of my day
Happens after I pray

Go to the YMCA exercise 
Then watch the news prime time

I listened to favorite songs
Off key I sing along

Tune in to Poetry Soup
For inspiration despite my mood

Today there was no pain
I’d be happy to have this day again

The muse takes a holiday. Now that's a title. But in reality it is still there.

I'm happy for you. Glad the pain subsided. When your muse is gone, try the amuse.

Aww, I can feel that boringness. Try taking a walk, listening to music; find your inspiration! Good things happen to those who don't wait around. Sending love!

So sorry to hear pain is a part of your life Inky! But your genius in poetry is a wonderful aftermath I suspect! I always feel like my work pales in comparison and really am not inspired to write much these days. Thanks for your kind comments of support! Love and light to you!

I enjoyed reading this write/story. Try putting some spice in your life. Let the butterfly inside see where it will take you. Wear a color you would Not wear. (scarf or hat or socks or something) Stop for coffee or tea then sit and watch the people go by. Be Blessed Each Day.... Have a wonderful spring day writing away.........
