Inspiration


I lay here on my bed And try to think and think Just what exactly I should write With this pen filled with ink. Should I scribble a poem With love, sadness, or hope? Or to continue on all day To sit around and mope? I guess inspiration is the way No… rather the key To unlock this case of writer’s block And solve this mystery Open your eyes, your ears, your nose! View what you hear, and listen to what you see Let the words and emotions drip down onto paper It really works for me! Well now I guess I’ve proved myself wrong Because what lies in front of me Are five little paragraphs …It’s poetry!
