In my world of flesh and bone, There are a few who know I write I even let them see a poem, When by chance I get one right. By one of the few, I was inquired, Why I had not written, Of a first born of a first born, A baby boy with whom I’m smitten. I had no answer because I’ve tried, And in my efforts failed, I know not why my muse has left me, High and dry, my words curtailed. In my mind, there is no answer, Except for one- it’s to me occurred, Perhaps some feelings are too strong, To write with mortal word. |

Yes, perhaps they are. I have the same problem writing about my children. This was so sweet a poem. |
