I am asked...



I am asked: "What brings you to write poetry?" and I respond: 

The MUSE
Compelling be its beckoning call
Welcomed be its echo of heart
The MUSE in visitation known
Pulsing sounds be a spell divine
With pen to paper words to cast as mine
Know I that this MUSE of Spirit blesses me
And I in the grace of gratitude, words bring I to thee.
