for me,
she exists,

not in flesh and blood
but in noun and verb
not in blonde and green
but in image and phrase

she exists

and her existence
speaks through me
through the
          flow of pen
through the
          tapping of keys

and she
becomes
real

but, although she
is merely
noun and phrase

she exists

in my heart

Poetry is a demanding Mistress. But she brings much joy to many, especially those that love and breathe life into her.

In some ways the "real" person exists here in words as they perhaps cannot in person. Enjoyed

Our minds and imaginations are perhaps the most powerful. What is the poets illusion and what is their reality is something people will always wonder. Should we, like magicians keep the secrets and truths of our inspiration under wraps or let them show? I like this. Just shows what we can create with our words.   Sorry for the ramble, Sven Pen! Nice thoughts.

Hi Sven,

Beautiful dear friend I am glad your muse is your close friend and she is coming across so very beautifully, enjoyed so very much.

Love, Cerenity

These lines have helped me to understand some part of why I write.  Thank you.

Sven, you know, perhaps she was hoping you noticed her and perhaps she thinks of you all the time as well. You just never know!  
Great write here!
