I Need an Idea--By Lanette Kissel--United States

I Need an Idea                           

I need an idea.
Can you suggest a source,
So that I can plot
this next poem’s course?

I need an idea
so that I can begin…
There’s a new poetry contest
I’d so love to win.

I need inspiration
so that I can start
to write the words
that will come from my heart.

Now, it’s not so depressing
as it may seem.
I have my idea.
I found it in a dream.
