Rhyming Block
When you just can't rhyme!21 total reviews
Comment from Vicki Ziemer
What a cute little poem. It looks like you are getting back in the mood to rhyme again. A rhyme about not being able to rhyme is a very good way to clear out the cobwebs and get back on track. I hope you don't have to resort to a laxative.

Comment from jmdg1954
Ha ha... you had me at laxative!
Ruts will always happen
Just have to persevere
With your pen hitting the paper
It will all be in the rear.
See a little tie in to the laxative theme...
Don't worry all will be well soon enough... John

I know this feeling. I was in a slump for a few months but it seems to have passed.
I hope your muse returns. Meanwhile you are on the right track with this humorous piece. It is fun to read and I'm sure will resonate with many.
Good luck,
Nancy

Comment from Treischel
I love that cartoon. Made me smile. Your clever Rhymed Couplets were delightful too. Writers block can be depressing. Hope you get over it soon. Kick that Muse of yours in the rump. Then that depression , you can dump. Lol. Good luck in the contest.

Let's hope the laxative is beneficial for your mouth orifice rather than the other one!!
Just keep writing even if you feel uninspired because, as has happened here, you have penned a delightfully rhyming poem!

ha,ha,ha, this cartoon made me laugh. Your poem and it's wording sounds like a long ago written lament. It is well rhymed and has great possibilities for the contest. I can't imagine you ever being in block mode.

I was kinda amazed myself that I was able to do this after not feeling at all like writing, but I guess not wanting to write inspired me somehow. Who'd have thought. =} Thank you so much. Rox
Comment from Janet Foor
I too hope these feelings pass for you. However, you have written a fun poem that I think every writer can identify with as we all have writers block from time to time.
Hang in there - you are right, this too shall pass.
Blessings

Comment from dragonpoet
These are silly rhyming couplets that show that your fight with writer's block is now over. This poem includes all the emotions the roam around in your head when you can't write. Yes, some writers are missed when they don't write for a long time, just like you said at the end of your poem. There is just a slight bit of tough in cheek pride here.
Keep writing

You are most kindly welcome, Rox. Yes. I write about all kinds of mythological creatures.

Comment from Gail Denham
This too shall pass. Surely. Writers' block is probably a misnomer. It's writer apathy and it hits us all. One reason I like Fanstory is for the prompts, for reading the work of others, for the thoughts and encouragement. It helps me being -- and then once the first words are written, the poem often takes off. Thank the Lord for that.
Good reminder. Thanks for the poem.
