Writers Block

The tip of your tongue is hard to find 
You search and seek and stumble to rhyme 
The page is blank and stays that way 
Your poets wings begin to fade 
There's not a single word in stock
You're sick indeed with writers block
You try and try but can't be freed 
There's nothing there for us to read 
So put a bandage on your pen
Tomorrow try your verse again

A cute one I identify with Kyle; it does get frustrating trying to be clever with words that have disappeared. I sure many will appreciate this one.

I'm getting a headache trying to write something. I hate writer's block! But you have written well about it, Kyle. Love, Kim
