Inspiration.
Just from my slumber In the hay,
Well out from Warfleld'a busy throng
I m sitting by the main highway
Watching autos come along.
r
In this wild Virginia clime
I can give my soul a chance
In Imagery that is sublime
To feel Its thrilling and expanse.
With papers books and other things,
My thoughts put far beyond the
moon,
I will soar on fancy's wings
And get my soul in perfect time.
I launched out on the sea of space
Headed for the polar star.
Claimed kin with all the poet race
And saw the gates of fame ajar.,
I saw the white way all ag|ow
And started to begin '
A rare poetic line or so
And see if I could enter In.
In clouds I gave my quill a dip
Wrote about a nickel's worth,
My planetary gearing stripped
And I came backwards to the earth
The clouds I tried to use for Ink,
Proved to be a drenching rain;
And before I'd time to think
It wet my clothes and crooked my
br^ln.
Then reason says. If you must write,
Let it be of earthly things
Seen from a less lofty height
Like spark plugs, coils or piston
rings.
THe planetary things you know
Are only years that bear that name
.Used to make an auto go
And not to give a blacksmith fame
Get you a pint of poet-rye.
Then hike it back and take the hay:
Give your clothes a chance to dry, i
Then in your village smithy stay.
So to whom it may concern.
If "you" should decide to write
Unless you have some speed to burn
Be sure a shelter is In sight.
