  Yes you will my friend! The struggle of working a 9-5 whilst trying to feed your writers hand - great piece.

  You will, you will. Often when my brain goes numb something is seen or heard that gives inspiration - usually something that others wouldn't recognise.

    Yes very successful with quite a few sales and a couple of commissions - but it was hard work.

  You could always write an invisible poem in white ink. It could go on for, ooh, about 5,437 verses. Of course, no-one will be able to see it - and so no one will know when they've reached the end of it! heehee. If I do a 'Notice of Absence' it will say 'Gone to the Mad House!'

    Hi Orchidee,
    
    Thanks for your words of encouragement.
    
    White ink poem on the invisible man perhaps?
    
    I'll think of something to write.
    
    Take care and keep on writing.

  FineB let it ride. You dont have to write. Sometimes we poets are not inspired. I have had a long dry spell and i take it as it comes.
  Don't feel you HAVE to write, just write when you feel like it. Unless you get paid by the word or line.

    Thank you for your words of encouragement. I hope that your dry spell is over and that you have been inspired to write?

  Those words can be hard to write sometimes but it is surprising what happenings in your life can trigger a torrent of words.
  As you say, Keep writing.

    Hello Goldfinch60.
    
    Thanks.
    
    In our lives what moves us and happens to us is indeed rich material for our poetry.
    
    Keep writing Fine B
