Poetic Awakening

Love can be a powerful muse for poetry,especially first love.

All of a sudden
Im entrenched in poetry
like a bird learning to sing a song of love as it whillows through the mists of magic.
I fly so batterdly in awe of a portal gracefuly lit with lights of allusions and imagery.
Mesmerized by their blinding beauty,
transformed i am into a bat fathoming the echoes of the heart as i boarder seamlessly into the maze of stanzas and odes.
Or is it prophecy being fullfiled,
Prophecy of Platos words
"At the touch of a lover everyone becomes a poet"?
Who knows for a mystery itself unfolds in the delights & despairs of
Love

I like this, full of good imagery. ( Just one small point, I like to read I´m not Im, I am an old grammarian !)
and
Or is it a prophecy being fulfilled ?
as in the prophecy of Plato`s words
might be better. Use I not i !
