rx for writer’s block
the lowered sky scowls, ushers in
another springtime squall.
restless, the wind’s spin, once again
heralds cold raindrop’s fall.
in layered wool, enwrapped in fleece
and sipping piping tea
the writer sighs at spring’s caprice —
and, writing, finds the way to peace.should others, plying art as trade
find dull days leave their souls in pique
recall that sun, too, can invade
with sick ennui the Muse pervade —
perhaps, what’s best is this technique:
Keep Butt-In-Chair, five days a week.

Love the rhyme of pique and technique!
Perfect poem for today. BIC five days a week is a good practice. 🙂
What is the writing equivalent to scales for musicians?
Wrapped in sweaters, drinking hot tea here as well.
