A request of Muse

Inspirations come, hopefully they will stay....

Once again I call to Muse, 

enlighten my eyes, 

speak glad tidings to my mind, 

fill this heart with stirrings, 

let me declare the ancient longings. 

This page of white desires for words 

to filling it's emptiness with meaning. 

Muse help me uncover those deeper things of the soul, 

to reveal beauty in rhyme and prose, 

to strike a chord of the spirit, 

to connect with another, 

this is the high calling of a poet. 

Muse without you who will I reach, 

where will I find form 

for feeling's expression to be made manifest, 

I have no talent of my own, 

these grandiose scribbles and scrawls belong to the divine, 

I can only write that which is given me, 

so muse please don’t leave, 

for if you go truly I will be alone.....
