Stay, muse, stay
I’m a different man when you’re here;
And nothing’s out of reach.
Stay, muse, stay
You’re oft gone too soon,
And back to wretched earth one falls,
As if you never were.
Stay, muse, stay
This is the promise I here make;
A good host I shall be.
Stay, muse, stay
And breath your magic upon these tools.
And of the wonders that should follow,
Faithfully I shall render.
Stay, muse, stay
Don’t go dead on me just yet;
Not before creation’s dough is caked.
Stay, muse, stay
Let’s wrap this up in sweet patnership;
This masterpiece we’re here making,
So cackling with beauty.
Stay, muse, stay
Misery straddles your vacation;
And I’m taken for a fraud.
Stay, muse, stay
Name a price and I shall pay;
For oft I’ve prayed when you’re gone,
That you come and go no more.

I love to write. To paint with words, and draw out more useful meanings from all kinds of human experiences. Kainene; let's see how this goes - I'm only beginning to pay attention to that 'crafty feeling'.Go to Obisike's profile, and read more of his/her posts.
Oh please tell that bugger to stop this flip flop.
“Misery straddles your vacation
And I’m taken for a fraud”
This line I particularly like.
Nice @obiaguomba
@midas…thanks for liking.
I liked this a lot. Cosider friendship instead of partnership in stanza 3
@nicolebassey…thank you. Friendship…I will consider it.
No amount is enough to hold your muse.When it travels,it travels, when it is back, IT IS BACK! However, we must make the most of it when it comes.It is like the husband who always travels,when he is home, the wife will make the most of the moment. *If you know what I mean* Winks*.
Thanks for sharing.
thanks @sambrightomo… I say amen to seizing the moment…I really hope something can be done.
Nice one man, very nice.
BTW, What is all these muse thing seff? The only thing that influences my writing is time. If i have time i write. Or is time a muse?
lol…@kaycee…don’t see why time cannot be your muse…can be quite hard to come by.
@kaycee, you know when you wake in the middle of the night and there’s a catchy phrase in your head, you get wanna write down the line but end up writing for hours. What’s that?
maybe he’s found a way to trap his muse. ngwanu @kaycee, tell us.
I don’t have any muse o. Nothing dictates my writing except time or my laptop battery or location. No be any foolish muse.
@kaycee
…nothing dictates ur “ramblings”?
Well, treat your muse right. She’s a very jealous lover. The more you write, the more she reveals, eternally holding your attention and teasing you. If you ignore her for an hour, she grows wings and flies away…
@daireenonline…I’ m not even comfortable with the lover imagery. My muse is no lover. Maybe a buddy – a friend, as @nicolebassey suggests.
Ahhh @obisike you flatter me. * Brown blush*
