Strumming
I am clutching
the smooth wood
of my guitar
to my chest
waiting
just waiting
for something
a thought?
a muse?
paper sits in front of me
others
balled up on the floor
from missing the trash can
a pick
grasped in my fingers
strums the strings
as I
absentmindedly
pluck a few chords
suddenly,
like a sunshine whispering
like a powerful light spreading in my chest
my inspiration comes
I jot down chords
I jot down words
my smile
flashes
I have my song
