My Sweet Muse - Original Song by RHopen

This is a song about writer's block, the bane of all writers.

My Sweet Muse
by Ronald Haselden
May 5, 2011

Oh my sweet muse
Why do you ignore me?
Oh why refuse
your kiss that would restore me?
Don't turn away my dear
Don't turn away my dear

Send me something like a sweet dream
Maybe just a love theme
Anything to make me sing again
And feel elation
Of the inspiration
Given freely to me
Taken back as quickly
And as sudden as it came

Oh my sweet muse
The empty page does haunt me
But you won't play
My game instead you taunt me
Don't be that way my dear
Don't be that way my dear

Send me something like a sweet dream
Maybe just a love theme
Anything to make me sing again
And feel elation
Of the inspiration
Given freely to me
Taken back as quickly
And as sudden as it came

Send me something like a sweet dream
Maybe just a love theme
Anything to make me sing again
And feel elation
Of the inspiration
Given freely to me
Taken back as quickly
And as sudden as it came

Back to another listen... The guitar solo reminds me on the Wings somehow. Really great. Very nice greetings from your German friend

Anette

@TanteA Thanks again Anette. -Ron

[dholeton]

Well done Ron

Sometimes just chasing the muse presents great results.

@dholeton Hi Dave, thanks very much and yes the chase is what makes it interesting. I just wish she'd slow down a bit nowadays haha. -Ron

[BluegrassForte]

All thumbs up! Enjoyed the music and the smile and bow at the end too!

[rhopen]

@BluegrassForte Hi Lindsey, thank you very much and thank you for your new video. I really enjoyed it very much. Your friend, -Ron

[CurtisMateer]

I still enjoy this and Not Embracing These Times as they are two of your most catchy songs. It's a funny ole world isn't it...

I love it very clever songwriting writing to a muse like that. lol I dig that! :)) We all get that problem right? Cool great old time rocker feel like pure 60's,I love the music the great drum beat, Your guitars are excellent as well as your bass playing. You remind me a lot of McCartney in his recent years the look,the songs and the way you can play all the instruments so great. Love your melodic pleasant vocals too. Ron my bro you really are a fabulous artistic talent with rare gifts. :)))

[McPanchi]

you´re right, your songs are ORIGINALS. The solo it´s exelent.

[CurtisMateer]

One person's limitations is another's aspirations...the sky's the limit with this one...a You Tube single of sorts Ron, one I'll return to again no doubt.

[CharmedQuarkZ99]

This is just fantastic Ron-had to come back great mix-who did the drums sounds fab !

[keonepax]

No writer's block problem here! Great song... sort of has a late 60's, early 70's feel to me. I like it!
