far too little inspiration
     breaths are short and labored groans
far too little compilation
     piles of thoughts like seedlings grown

wander, muse, in my direction
     molt your skin upon my quill
leave afresh new intonation
     sing of grace my heart to fill

words flow not in thoughts or schemes
     without your blessings freely shared
dreamers cannot their off'rings bring
     and worship at your throne-room here

rather to pen some words, so few
     than to write a multitude aplenty
without your breathing life anew
     into meaningless platitudes many

speak not volumes...just speak...to me
     I plead

Oh, this, dear Steaven, is an inspired image!
Love it.

Your plea is very beautifully articulated and your muse is certainly pleased, she will visit you more often again, I am sure.

Love,

Quiet times are meant for recharge, I have found.  So much energy eminates from your quill Poet.  No doubt the brief respite is well deserved.  Nice flow to this.

hello steavenr these are delightful words and I love the communication with muse or inspiration....I love the talk of the poet adressing to some etherical being...It is a very interesting and beautiful poem...
