Great Fall

Call for all the king’s horses;

Alert the monarch’s men

I’ve fallen from my lofty seat,

The ink has left my pen

My thoughts are clearly scrambled,

The crack has opened wide,

The pot has boiled over ~

I’ve burned my sunny side.

Still pretty "blocked", but coming up with poems like this helps to lighten my mood a bit... :) Thanks, Brittany.

and you write about writers block so well, i think you might be picking yourself back up already.

[Rita L. Sev]

Ha! Well, I try the old remedy of writing about it... trouble is, lately, I'd be writing as many "block" poems as the "snow" poems a few weeks ago! Thanks, Jacob!

You commiserate in the most delightful of ways. You may have burned your sunny side but the light still shine through.

[Rita L. Sev]

Thank you, Blue. Feeling a bit more optimistic today... :)
