the muse
is silent
there are no words
but for the wind’s taunting
whispers

I’m afraid I missed a few days of my challenge of a poem a day. Life, I’m afraid, got in the way. But I am trying to be gentle with myself, telling myself it is okay to let the words in my head settle a bit. To rest. To sleep a bit, perhaps even dream a dream or two. I’m not sure if I will challenge myself to a micro-poem a day in October, or just let the Muse lead me where she will. A time to rest…must be the season. 🍂🍁🍂

Personal deadlines are there to be bent, or even broken. No one is going to sack you if you do!

I came by to see your cinqku, and what a lovely example. But yes, take a break. I have been busy too and haven’t been around so much. I do enjoy your poetry and your different forms.

Thanks Deanna. We are in the middle of trying to find a new place to live (which will require major downsizing…long overdue, but stressful), in the midst of tending to the new kittens we rescued, and an insane schedule at work. Words these days are hard to come by. I’m hoping to be past the whirlwind soon. Peace…See you all soon! -kat
