I liked the following poem, but I couldn't really figure it out at first. Then my sister was talking about having writer's block (she blogs, too) and I realized that sometimes I have a story to tell, but I have to search for a relevant poem, and sometimes I have a poem to share, but I have trouble relating it to a story. Some days I don't have either a story or a poem. So those days I don't blog.
Bad Day
by Kay Ryan
Not every day
is a good day
for the elfin tailor.
Some days
the stolen cloth
reveals what it
was made for:
a handsome weskit
or the jerkin
of an elfin sailor.
Other days
the tailor
sees a jacket
in his mind
and sets about
to find the fabric.
But some days
neither the idea
nor the material
presents itself;
and these are
the hard days
for the tailor elf.
