Sitting on the rocky perch The sand just inches from her toes So much like the desert she left This moist earth now the place she goes Sighing deeply she reaches down To touch the sodden beach So long ago it seemed that she Would not have had so far to reach She turns and sees her muse Looking out over the foamy sea The muse shrugs as if to say If you write, it’s without me Forsaken yet again she waits Words unwritten in her pain Hoping to unlock that door To help her write again |

Nature touches deep within the psyche and heart. The sea, a river, mountains, the desert, are inspiring. It's wonderful to read this glimpse of your spirit. You've been greatly missed here on these blue pages. |

Writing your pain is kinda like unlocking a door huh? Lovely poem. |

It's so true that sometimes when we can't write, our soul is asking us to listen. I really feel your words. |

Maybe your muse is saying that you can go alone now and write from within. Because it seems to me as it was surfing the waves, you wrote beautifully. I hope that you keep expressing until this muse of yours decides to come home. Alison |

Hi there... I really enjoyed reading this. Your thoughts are simply put and poetic in their natural beauty. It is a pensive poem and one I can identify with. Great writing! |

Simply Beautiful, well put. Look to reach futher than before. Nice The ability to describe life with words is similar to painting a picture; both can be powerful tools. |

Poet deVine - first I've seen you in a long time. If the writing has left, it will come back, there, I said it would, so it will... BC |

I am so happy to see you. Tell that muse of yours to behave herself. I have missed you. |

When life moves us from a place of comfort to the unknown we often squish ourselves into an unrecognizable speck until we can tolerate our new surroundings. I sense that you are emerging from your speck and beginning to embrace your comfort once again. Your fellow writers embrace your return which should encourage you to embrace your words once again. This is a nice piece ~ and I look forward to reading more of your work. In just two days, tomorrow will be yesterday! |

I have not had a muse in so long...and now, I'm tentatively trying to write again. Thank you all for your kind replies. Though you may not have seen my name here in a while, I have been reading you! ![]() |

This is how you write without a muse?? And you think you need one? *S* You have the key, dear lady... just keep leaning on that door. *S* I enjoyed this... it's good to see you posting! *S* |

I remember you and your muse PDV and you were simply superb together. It will be there again. You wrote with such depth and compassion. Good to read your words again. Eric |
