Fine thoughts to capture. I think I see a rhyme despite trying to remember not to...
Quips appear night and day and often come when one is not aware.

You could be right about the nymphs, they are said to blow out vapors to capture mens thoughts, or induce thoughts, etc.

Hi Treischel. Very a-musing. Can't say I've ever mused for hours at a time, probably more like minutes, but accumulated they could possibly stack up to hours. I appreciate that you didn't clutter the poem up with punctuation. Thank you, Cliff

Interesting. It does look like that! I know what you are saying. It's hard to catch a muse. Gather those thoughts and build a poem around them. My daily thing. Good job. Nancy

A lovely free verse with a great picture for calm visual presentation. Yes we do have fleeting quips that come and go and sometimes end up on our page.
Nice thought, that moves freely. Smiles, Robin :)

This is a very nice poem but isn't the first word while? I have not come across the wile spelling. Unless it has different meanings. Thanks for sharing.

Comment from RodG

Good

I spend much of my time like the speaker of this poem. I love the final line. I know this is presumptuous, but I think this poem can be compressed into a marvelous haiku. RodG

Wile away in reverie
The hours, the hours
Passing quickly in deep thought
Quips come and go
A mental show
Scraps to put upon the page

Well you do have the one rhyme go/show here. LOL. THe time spent in gathering mental scraps for your page is generally worth it. Though some folks think the dumbest things are worth an attempt at poetry.
