Muse Convention
No one knows where they're meeting
or how they even knew to go there
just that they've left
and the poets are bereft
There's no schedule of events
no program planning committee
it's all just whims and fancy
meanwhile, poets get antsy
What are they discussing there?
And when will they come back?
the poets here are crying
as their ink wells are drying
But imagine! If my muse and your muse
are mingling, joining forces
there'll be no stopping the magic word art
when each muse returns to each poet's heart

Dear K,
You got that right (write)! The muse has left the building! And yet…you’ve cleverly created a poem about writers block. 🤔
I really enjoyed this. Totally brought a smile to my face and if my muse ever shows back up again I’ll send her over to yours for some help. 😉

Thanks, H! I got a rather peculiar joy imagining what a gathering of flighty muses might be like... total chaos! Sounds fun.... 😁

It's been that kind of month. February always sucks anyway. Lol. Thankfully it's the shortest month!
As long as we all stick together, we can make it through! Lol.
(Cute little rhymer, btw!)

It really does my updates page has slowed to a crawl, but the poet perseveres, severely, and often perversely. Haha

Wonderful imaginative spill. The convening of inspiration does tend to have limitless possibilities and you have certainly painted a wonderful scenario here.
Well done

I've got a bunch of muses. They influence me in different ways. I like what you've done here. I wonder if you can put muse on a resume ? Keeping singing and writing.

Thanks PS! It just occurred to me that a muse convention would probably eventually morph into more of a muse orgy.... 🤔

Great poem, you ain't in the creative game if you don't resonate deeply with this.
My muse is part time, absent more than present, frugal with the magic dust....

Awesome poem. I most definitely struggled for a couple of months recently. It seems I've found something.. it's called lack of sleep.. lol. Honestly I've found a wind of inspiration, it's kind of nice.. gonna ride in it until the wheels fall off, hopefully I can ride on through napo.

Yep, we can't question how & why the inspiration comes & goes... it just does. I'm glad you're seeing a glimmer of it!
Thanks
