Some Days

Some days I have very little to offer

Opening up, I find myself empty

Crumbs remain rather than plenty

Is all an illusion?

For I can think it is craft and time served

But you are the inspiration

Bringing gifts with grace

And although I spend time at the coal face

It is you who made the earth

And set me in time and space

Thoughts

Finding inspiration is can be hard, especially if we become too inward looking. So here is a picture to inspire you.
