Wake Up, Little Susie

Fast asleep she is today

I’ve tried so many ways to rouse

She opens up a fluttered lid

Returning quickly to her drowse

 

I’m waiting patiently for her

to finish that refreshing  snooze

in hopes that floods of vivid dreams

will awake my sleeping Muse

This is cute and sweet, Rita. I also love how the words came out of my mouth in effortless rhythm.

"in hopes that floods of vivid dreams
will awake my sleeping Muse" -my favorite lines.

aweh this is sweet, and passionate, and shows a strong deep bold love and sense of patience , it is cute to watch little children sleep or trying to fight staying awake! Good read.

Oh geez now I have that song stuck in my head! My cousin used to sing that to her daughter all the time. Ha I think you woke the sleeping kraken with this one Rita....

[Rita L. Sev]

She's still pretty lazy today, but I'm putting her to work on a silly science review piece, so at least she's earning her keep... LOL!

[jacob erin-cilberto]

your muse doesn't get that much sleep, Rita...
you keep her pretty busy, or i guess it is vice-versa isn't it?

[Rita L. Sev]

;) I suppose she's hibernating after all those snow poems... Thanks, Jacob.

I think it is hard to wake up our inspiration...
You know Rita, it is almost like if you try to dream deeper you will then wake up. Like a reverse of forces.
Playful look at the common issue of writers around the globe.

[Rita L. Sev]

Some days, it flows, and other times... Still waiting for those deeper dreams to yield some inspiration... Thanks, David!

[The Rock And Roll Cowbo..]

Ahhhh yes the Mise can be very fickle… but you brought sweet humor to the subject.

[Rita L. Sev]

She's just so darn lazy these days... LOL! Thanks, Dale!

[The Rock And Roll Cowboy(REBEL WITH A CAUSE)]

Don't mix up stubbornness and laziness, LOL
