The Nothing Verse

The Nothing Verse


I went all through the day deep in thought

But alas it turned out to be all for naught

Searching for something to write, a new tale

But try as I might it ended that I would fail


For this whole day just nothing fit on the page

I tried insightful, and then I switched to rage

I moved on to write something thats truly neat

But in the end it's writers block pushing defeat


I read many poets with so many a great line

Yet still I was stuck without a thing to design

I even went way off course and tried some style

And then when nothing came I quit after a while


I guess I'm just stuck until I have an inspiration

I'll churn and grind and suffer with perspiration

Well maybe tomorrow will return my treasure

And once again I'll give my readers pleasure

Judging by this poem 'nothing' may be a source of inspiration just like anything else. Your inspiration may be having a little rest - why bother?! It needs to be left alone for some time. In such moments better enjoy fellow poets' most inspired works.
You are not alone - there are many
"searching the world for inspiration
searching books, music and nature too
a lot of effort gone into it, a lot of concentration
inspiration I think is hard to find..." (concludes the poet)
("In Search of Inspiration" by Sneha Murali)

WOW!! Thanks so much. For me it was something fun to do. I write 2 or 3 back to back most times. I was wanting to write something one day and just nothing was flowing. Then it hit me write about nothing to write about. Seemed like a great idea and it turned out really nice.
