inviting poets to pack their muse
travel to poetry-land to share the views
imbibe a haiku filled with tradition
embrace a tanka created with ambition
swim together in pools of creativity
feast on fabulous exotic activity
make a reservation for all the above
send your deposit to become a muse of love
choose a trip to the lovely sonnet host
imagine all to write the most

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!
