A Muse

A muse...I muse
You find by chance
And never choose

As your thoughts dance
About her jeweled shoes
She inspires
With desires
Your notion sires

But take care
To be fair
And never to abuse
Nor neglect or roughly use
Or you'll surely lose--your muse

Just keep your head
And you will instead
Arouse, delight and amuse!

nice to read some rhyming verse for a change--playful and upbeat--with just a hint of warning. nice piece.

Wow!!! My dearest Valerie has bookshelved rhyming poetry! What is the world coming too? (lol) Of course I??m kidding? your cadence helps the quick play of words that tumbles with rhyme in your delightful verse. The hidden rhyme within lines is a good way to keep the flow of verse? but I find that it is better to use a less deliberate rhyming scheme with shorter lines? Again it doesn??t matter since it works here. Nice write!

I am not a fan of rhymed poetry, but yours is amusing. I can't believe how well this reads, it's like dancing down the page with those jeweled shoes.
Truely wonderful.
