I’ve got
nothing
I sat in the kitchen
at the antique table
with my paper and
favorite pen at the
ready
nothing
I moved to the living
room and sat in
the plaid over-stuffed
chair with my journal
and a #2 pencil
nothing
I went to the dining
room and sat quietly
in the dark, waiting
nothing
Up the steps
counting each one
and into my bedroom
and there curled up
under the patchwork
quilt, snoring gently
I found my muse

I love the end… somehow there can be comfort in that snoring… and sometimes annoyance as well.

I think it depends on who’s snoring 😉

I do think sometimes setting makes all the difference in the world. We have to find our comfortable space in which to write!
