Listening to every heart

aMusing Adieus

my muse is being funky,
she's having
lots of fun,
she knows I've
got to leave now,
soon out the door
I'll run

she's playing little
mind tricks
she's a sprightly little
one
my muse is being funky
but she's
having all the fun

my heart says
write sweet somethings
that will last when
you're gone awhile
so poets from all
over the world
will come back
to read and smile

but my muse, why
she is grinning
~ see her looking
at me? ~
she wants to play,
cajole and roll
and won't let HER
muse let be….

now that's a thought,
and had you thunk
that a muse
is not alone?
Heaven help us
oh my gosh,
they don't travel
in groups of one!

a muse has a muse
of its own
and they get together
to plot
how to make us
humans squirm
especially THIS
poetic lot

now here I'd like
to pen some cheer
and these muses
are making it clear
they have other things
on their mind
and won't let me
write sweet rhyme

why, they took my
fountain pen
and turned OFF my
computer
once again
they've even hid
some friends in the
institut'r,
and they've rummaged
my paper from me
while in my brain
they run and play
"Ollie-Ollie-oxen free"

I suppose it's really
all my fault
as last night I
happened to see
a re-run of a very
good show,
"Dead Poets Society"

and now I've got
on my mind
a little rhyme here, some
snippets of time
weaving in and out
and all about
they're calling
to me again

BUT

my muse is being funky,
she's having
lots of fun,
she knows I've
got to leave now,
soon out the door
I'll run

she's playing little
mind tricks
she's a sprightly little
one
my muse is being funky
but she's
having all the fun

Hey my poets….y'all take care of yourselves….I'll check in as soon as I get back.  Have a good week!  Miss me just a little….and write volumes so I might read to my heart's content when I get come home.  Sun

Karilea~
Take lots of heartfelt prayers with you doll.
We'll leave the light on
and have volumes for you to read when you return.
God bless~

Muses have muses
you've got to run
Muses have muses
ad infinitum
(grinning here)
You ARE  creative!

This was too cute, Sunshine.  Have a safe trip!
