Poem- Inspiration.

By - Ross Mabey.​

When we are inspired to write lyrics or prose, ​
Often, the words can flow like a river, that never pauses as it goes.​
The rhyming of lyrics can be near perfection, ​
The words just seem to keep flowing on without needing correction.​

Sometimes, the flow can be too great, ​
We can be nearly swept away by the volume and the rate.​
As we continue, the story line becomes clearer, ​
Perhaps we should listen more closely, to the message in a poem or a song.
It maybe telling us how to correct an error that went wrong.

​Perhaps its a message that falls on deaf ears.
Whatever the message is, mankind always fears. ​
If they heed the message and let others know, ​
There will be some kind of criticism​,
Then something is sure to go wrong.
With tongue in cheek I'll finish off this poem, ​
While waiting patiently, for inspiration to come along.​

Inspiration is a she-devil. Sometimes nice, sometimes bad. A great poem.
