My muse is on its usual muse-ual vacation...

Don't let it know that I miss it a great deal...


Nothing to of write,

At least nothing within my sight,

Got into an argument with the muse,

It stopped just short of a physical fight...

 

The muse did on a vacation go,

On a sailboat where it can use all his hot air & blow,

I care not, for now, if it ever returns,

Guess I will, tonight, just skip the seed,

And go right for the sauternes...

 

If you see my muse,

Out an about on one of the seven seas,

Tell it I don't care if it ever comes back,

Make it look like I am in earnest,

Not the reality of which being,

I am just using this as a ruse...

All three of your "My Muses" are fantastic! :) You have been here a long time... It will take me a lifetime to get through all of them. You are so talented, your mind is "neverending" - you are blessed with great writing ability Ed Matlack.

Love and Light

Youse always has a ruse or twos. Well, just let me pull your chain and maybe, just maybe you might think of something.

Sauternes?! No wonder your muse skipped town. Those sweet French wines really give you the gas. Send your muse a note in a bottle that you won't drink them anymore, and hope for his swift return.
