What could be in this

Magic potion

by Wendy G

She was feeling very sad and blue

For there was nothing she could do,

No thoughts at all, no insight –

Her writing was not going right.

***

Then she thought “Perhaps a drink

Will give me strength, help me to think!”

So, in her kitchen with downcast emotion,

She prepared herself a little potion.

***

It took time, but she kept going strong,

Hoping that nothing would go wrong.

She’d never tried this drink before,

And wondered what might be in store!

***

She found herself an easy chair,

Sat down to relax, tried not to care.

The jug was there right at her side,

Her favourite glass on the table beside.

***

She poured herself a little drink,

And – almost before she could even blink,

She had some thoughts that she could write -

Grabbed paper and pen with great delight!

***

She furiously wrote for more than hour -

It was a long time since she’d felt such power!

Now what was in this amazing drink?

Can you guess? What do you think?

***

She called it “Creative Juices: flow and go!”

She drank it all! But you must know

She won’t tell you her little secret

For the recipe’s hers – and she’s going to keep it!
