The Spark of Creativity
Escaping Writer’s Block

Staring at a blank screen Fingers hovering expectantly Over the hungry keyboard Awaiting the spark of creativity
My fingers flutter in mid-air The screen is a virgin white The frustration builds within me As daytime turns to night
Darkness beckons from my window The moon shining white on high My desk strewn with emptied coffee cups My creativity has gone awry
Sweat soaked head in hands Fingers curled tight in hair Trying to pull an idea free For a new poem winsome and fair
Finally dazed and confused With my mind at last set free My fingers alight on the keyboard And dance without thought from me
I go to bed fulfilled In the early hours of the morn The screen virgin white no more My creativity adorned
I sleep a restful sleep After my imagination ignited Amid dreams of recognition for a job well done For a new poem into this world invited
