    Enjoyed it

    We go on holiday to recharge our systems with energy, and it seems reasonable that a muse needs this too. Well done, congratulations for the HM.

    Interesting possibilities in the first line! If I stuff her into a suitcase, she'll get cranky. If I have to carry her piggy-back, I'LL get cranky!

    Creative metaphorical "poetry-land," where we can drink haikus, snuggle with tankas, swim in creativity and feast on foreign, nouveau activities.
    Would such activities transform us mortals "to become a muse of love?" "Lovely sonnet host" triggers 'lovely southern coast.' Perhaps those who "imagine all" really do "write the most!"
    Very creative piece.
    Thank you for your entry!
