Stacte, sweet spice for writing be
My stimulus for sharing thought
My muse I share with those who see
Making incense of my words is key
So many themes, no stopper's knot
Stacte, sweet spice for writing be
Words to drink like fine chablis
and some with love and danger frought
My muse I share with those who see
I make no promise but yet may plea
for other creations I have wrought
Stacte, sweet spice for writing be
Not all who visit will agree
with each message you have brought
My muse I share with those who see
So then this blog is now set free
and thus, my stewing pepper pot,
Stacte, sweet spice for writing be
My muse I share with those who see
2012 Haiku Challenge
Stacte, the sweet spice
awakens my latent muse
infusing Haiku
