    I seem to have lost my ability to rhyme

    How did I know it would cost me a dime

    I have dug long and deep to find the root cause

    It seems age nurtures logic and shows creativity a pause

    If every idea in my head goes through a grind of reasoning

    Its only natural that my food of poetry will lack a dash of seasoning

    Oh! I have gotten so far , realization just struck

    Oops! Evil eye strikes and I am stuck with struck.

    Boss is happy that I am tapping away

    Little does he know that this time I am whiling away

    Rhymes face a block and I almost give in

    Tea boy smiles with a cup of caffeine!

    A sip and my fingers take charge

    Alas there is a query and human resources need to barge

    So for now it is a bye

    But the magic does not die!!!!!!

    Nice start Varalakshmi24. Sounded so casual too.

    So when can we expect another one?
    Will it be from where you stopped now?
    If not, how different could it be then?
    Will it be about something you love?

    Whatever you do, though it sounds good,
    Brings in that boredom after a while.
    A break that makes you creative would
    Make you to cross that extra mile

    And you feel so happy about it.
    Being refreshed you start anew,
    And spend how much ever little bit
    That you get in a day to continue

    Doing something that brings you joy.
    Writing rhyme too is an effective ploy
    To make a dull mind gear up and work
    Instead of whiling away like a jerk.

    :) Happy rhyming!

    littl! No music comes to my head. May be the nursery rhyme kind of music would suit this.
