~*~
My fairy muse,
Her name is Merry,
She can amuse,
And be contrary!

She flits and flies
About my head,
And darts around
When I'm in bed.

She wakes me up
In mid of night,
Says, "Grab a pen!
Now write and write!"

She talks of love
And fantasy,
Then she's spoutin'
Philosophy.

Merry is my
Inspiration,
But at times,  
She's pure frustration!

She spews out words
From soft to bold,
One moment hot,
Next moment cold.

She speaks like saint,
And then does not,
Speaks angel words
Then words red hot!

When she's away
I long to hear,
Poetic words
Ring in my ear.

My Merry's aim
Is to confuse,
But I won't trade
My fairy muse!
~*~

Muses are cool. After all, where would we be without them? How did you name yours--did it just come to you or did you find a name that seemed to fit her? I wonder what my muse is named. Cute write, Linda!

Don't you dare trade her...
Quite the contrary, I kind of like Merry
just the way she is.  I really do!

Offer her a cooing dove
And maybe she will speak of love.

As is usually the case with my poems, I must have made a hundred edits since I posted it!
You probably wouldn't recognize it now! lol

Glad you enjoyed reading it!

I don't really know!  She and I are as one, so I couldn't tell you if I came up with her or whether she told me what it is! lol

Have a great day!

Hello Merry  
It's really nice to meet you. I'm glad that
you decided to join Linda today. I'm sure that you
find her just as delightful as you are, and enjoy being with her
as much as she enjoys your company.

Thanks, and I'll see you two later  
Hugs to you both     
Ethel

Noah & Sapphiria

The angel food cake was absolutely heavenly. We shared it! I think it would be wonderful for the four of us to get together--and what better night than Saturday!--The summer solstice! Leave all the arrangements to us! We'll plan everything! We would however, appreciate  it if you could bring along so more of your delicious angel food cake! :

Loves 'n huggums,
Linda & Merry
