A Poem by Donald Meikle

oh I've been caught in the rhyming swirl of a rhythmic beat and a dancing curl
That gets my toe to tapping time as fingers snap and the music's fine and at other times I've heard and tried to word can I be should I be all that I want to be am I then trapped with a hand and pen such are the notes that linger and hold onto my thoughts as the coffee gets cold writing in rhythm and trying to rhyme with a muse that is laughing as I'm beating time

we can be pulled in by someone or something and though it may inspire us to write,
in the end how do we describe it well enough to translate the feeling?

I enjoyed this one, Don, thanks for sharing.
