My notions lie sorted into bins
and ranged on shelves
ready to hand,
up for the grabbing,
waiting for the Muse of Making to return.
That gentle Muse fled so many months ago
it's madness to expect her back
and in the meantime skills decline,
fingers become ever less nimble,
and the urge to make slides down some slippery slope
into the slough of despond,
never to be seen again.
And here I am,
my notions taking space on shelves
like metaphoric dogs in mangers,
not to be moved because of others' needs.
Declutterfy's the word.
The imperative is loud and clear,
a bell-wether
ringing in the changes called for by age.
The solution?
Just dump those notions
on an unwary kindergarten teacher.
She'll know how to use them!
