It's Been Awhile
It's late in the day, and I've a poetic urge,
But will it be uplifting or emerge as a dirge?
I’m hoping the muse will treat me as favored
And inspire my quatrains that will be (mostly) savored!
Will "sublime" end up as the word of the day,
Or will “pithy” summarize the artful array
Of words on a screen, of feelings in the heart?
Will it be doggerel, or will it be art?
Can I finish three stanzas or stop just at two?
Ooops, too late now, so I know what to do!
Come up with a finale that’s funny and sassy,
How about “Happily Ever After” - it’s so terribly classy!
