Pen in Hand Poem

I have been lucky and not suffered writer's block too often. But at times, writer's block can be really frustrating. I'm used to having writing ideas. Just to stare at the paper and have no writing ideas can at times be very scary. What if I never think of another writing idea? This poem is in tribute to those times that writing ideas just seem to escape me. Often poetry is a good way to get the muse awake again.

Pen in Hand


Pen in hand,
Paper blank,
Staring back at me,
Begging me.

Pen in hand,
Paper blank,
Write on me,
Fill me.

Pen in hand,
Paper blank,
Tell the world,
Give me life.

Yet...

Pen in hand,
Paper blank,
