Those muses can certainly be persistent. Even when you tell them to go away it seems they don't listen and they get their way. I'm so glad yours is working with you. Excellent rhymes and rhythm to your quatrains.

A delightful poem and equally enthralling muse.
A word of advice - my muse presented herself on this site just over a year ago. Since then she's taken me to places I hadn't dreamt I could go .
So -buckle up and settle in for the ride of your life.
My very best wishes to you and your muse- keep writing.
:-) Shirley

I like the way you acknowledge the help and support of fellow Fanstorians. I couldn't agree more, there are so many ideas buzzing around here that it becomes relatively easy to find new things to write about and new forms to experiment with.

I believe you do and a very good one :o)
I believe I have a muse
she came into existence,
about the time I joined this site
she majors in persistence.
Your muse has great rhyme and meter...
God bless

I envy you; you having a muse as you said
I don't feel quite so alone
now that I have my muse.
For me, that muse is missing, trying hard to find one, but unable find one as it is always running. Loved knowing about
your muse.

Your muse has created a lot of fine work for you, and like you Fanstory has been a place where the writing bug is caught and not to be denied. Your poem captures the spirit of this very well. I found this verse very appealing:
Kind of like a little kid,
that tugs on Mother's legs.
"How about this?" "Or maybe that?'
whispering,she begs.

Some spag: 'exsistance' should be existence

'persistance' should be persistence

I think each and every writer has a muse. It is whatever inspires them to write. For some it is a person, for others it might be something else. This is very well done.
