the curse of the verse
I don’t need to nurse
it’s alive and well and kicking

I lay down my words
they fly out in herds
and like Timex keep on ticking

Your muse in good health
is a muse showing good wealth
shining rich in verse

A muse of beauty
in true spirit of bounty
tickling here, terse

I like the rhyme scheme...nicely done.

Does that mean...no more writer's block. Cuz if it does...I'm with you honey.

The essences of all that is important in life...starts with you.

Thanks all!!!
Joyce, the curse of the verse doesn't mean that what I rehearse will fill my purse, it's just that it keeps on flowing.
It doesn't mean, either, that neither or neither are what one should proclaim.
It's just that I'm dealt, far from being well svelte, with words that run about in refrain,
going willy nilly and sometimes quite silly, so that stopping them's quite a study in vain.
