Genius at Work!
Shh…Genius at work!
Except when you’re not…
not genius, I mean!
Creativity
has inexplicably fled…
vacated the scene!

It’s a conundrum!
Oh! what’s a poet to do?
Quick! Write a haiku!
Post a photo…no, post two…
That’s it, genius, you’re all through!

Thank you, Msdedeng, I was stuck for a poem today and decided maybe I could make lemons into lemonade. I don’t know what I’ll do when I get stuck again! Thank you for your kind comment. Take care. Cheryl

I do this. If am unable to write a long poem, I go for Elfchen or last time I went for Haiku :D. Create, innovate, everything will fall in place. 😀
I love the genius work here.

Thank you, Cindy, for your kind comments on my poem. I am honored by your award nomination, but at this stage of my life, I just want to enjoy writing poems and interacting with intelligent, creative people. There are many young poets out there who are deserving of awards, and it could boost their careers. Thank you for understanding. All the Best! Cheryl

You are most welcome Cheryl and I hear you on that! And to think you got nominated twice-:). I’m a lot like you and it takes a lot of time these awards… but is such a fun way to connect with such amazing artists. I do love that and trust me I get it!!!
