Notes About The Poem

*Concerns about Hurricane Irma.

Worry Steals My Muse

Worry can sometimes steal my muse, quickly taking it away
I worry about the well-being and safety of others now
I pray they will get through this difficult ordeal, somehow
But the worry brings a blank page to mind, less writing today

I'm worrying along with you on this one, Heidi. My daughter and grandson are there and he's sick so they're staying home. Praying.
