When the muse feels as though a song, This poem about writing came along.
Music is poems with notes set to sing.
Whatever the words, emotions to bring.

Some sad songs can really bring you down.
Listen to some blues, to keep your frown.

Other times lighthearted words ease the mind.
Become someone else for awhile in kind.

Rhyming with timing and verse set to meter.
Has to make sense, or I'll call you a cheater.

Now most poets tend to call their work songs.
Whether or not, I just want to belong.

I cannot write notes, to music in that way.
I can write poems, speak loud -or softly say.

Rhyming and timing without any reason.
Is hard on my brain in any one season.

Although all the old poems are considered better.
A new one by chance might strike on this letter.
