Winter's Block

I once knew
inspiration long ago
when flowers
bloomed all in a row
fur and feathers
sat along with me,
resting under the
weeping willow tree

With pen and paper
poised to write,
I just couldn't bring
words to light
pounding words
refused to reign
stuck inside a
blocked brain.

Green grass held
its breath,
lingering till spring
found death
Summer came
warm and bright
but words never
seemed quite right

Autumn came and
stayed a spell,
wishing a fond
summer fairwell
Winter cold and
forbodding
stilled the waters
erroding

caught in time
still as glass,
inspiration long
since past
