I feel that when inspiration strikes

It takes hold of your mind and soul,

Grips your imagination tight,

And spews new ideas until your mind is full.


But when inspiration is gone

There’s not much you can do

To convince it to turn itself back on

And again make an artist out of you.


Recently, I have been struck

With a creativity and a will to write.

No longer do my words get stuck,

No longer do my ideas fight.


I write poems every single night

And draw for more than four hours.

So far, there’s no end in sight

So I’ll just continue painting my flowers.
