I haven’t a clue what to write about
Stuck on this mission to write a sonnet
Should it be about a girl with a bonnet?
A better notion would erase all doubt.
So lost for a clue, I begin to pout.
Racing for a thought, I pounce upon it!
Thoughts slip through mind; I’ve lost ’em, dagonet!
In frustration for a notion, I shout!
Still at a loss for words of silver tongue,
I search in my vocabulary for
Zingy, fizzly words to make my words bounce.
For a topic, my mind swirled and sprung.
Me, at a loss for words? Never more!
A new little poem, finished, I announce!
