My future as a poet
is hanging by a thread.
I am waiting for the Muse
to give me the go-ahead
to compose an ode
from the top of my head.
I should be writing verses
but I draw doodles instead.
The lack of good ideas
is what I mostly dread.
I am used to take the lead
but maybe I should be led.
Just give me some hints,
I hate to be spoon-fed.
I am open to suggestions
- all inhibitions shed -
from any young female
even if newly wed.
I mean no impropriety
as I am well bred
and I have to be careful
on whose toes I tread.
Don’t take any notice
of what people said:
that I need inspiration
can be taken as read.

- you are a gentle poet Luigi-san, and have the fortune of also being Italian - long story, nevermind, this poem is a great rhymer - smooth as a silk tuxedo, super :)

I think we all need cheering up, Jenny, and this is my effort towards that aim.

And your comments are always suave, dear Nicky. I am curious to hear that long story. 
Thanks for your kind words.

The Inspiration Point usually does the trick, Claudine. Looking forward to it (with fingers crossed). wink
