~T’was the Sixteenth…

T’was the sixteenth of December
And I was driving myself nuts!
I erased and erased,
Following entire sentence cuts!

Nothing I wrote
Seemed to quite work.
Please tell me that help –
Somewhere it doth lurk?

I’m going to be late,
T’will never be done on time!

I could see the calender turning.
I could hear the clock chime.

But, still, this short story,
Was leaving me a blank!
I’m drowning, I’m drowning!
Someone send me a plank!

The cursor kept blinking,
The page was just… white…
Not a single word or sentence,
Was gracing my sight.

Oh what will I do??
I have my story all planned!
When will the words for this story,
Instead of fleeing in my brain – land?

To the KING be all the glory!
