APOGEE Poet

Join a daily celebration of poetry and the arts. This blog gives voice to the academics, the arts, creativity, expression and the pursuit of TRUTH. All art forms, all academic interests are timeless reflections and revelations of the human condition. Passion, poetry and the arts fuel the creative fires that move me to expression and deep gratitude. My published book of poems, THE WIND AND THE WILLOW is available at Barnes and Noble and online booksellers nationally and internationally.

Sweet Surrender

what be this calling in silence heard
the Muse beckons colors be words
deep indigo shimmering light of a star
brought I to wondrous vistas far
strokes upon a surface pristine and white
from a palette comes the indigo night
sweet surrender and I to behold
the Muse calling in color told.
