~Inspiration Born Of Night~ Unspoken words tell secrets ... but hide between the lines. Finding solace in the night, as shadows press for time. Burning hours no one knows, while all the worlds at rest. Mercifully inspiration comes, passion of lyric be thy quest. Savor every word and line ... in hopes that it will last. For soon the sun will steal the moon ... the night is fading fast. Listen for gifted voices, whispered wisdom ... handed down by time. No rest now for the poets pen, they must capture every verse and rhyme. "What light thru yonder window breaks"... with the dawn ... this poet may now rest. The shadows will return with the night ... inspiration will return as this poets welcome guest. Janet Marie |

JM, shame on the sun, for stealing the moon, but the sun promises, to return it soon for the poets, release comes with time freeing them all with expression in rhyme ~~enjoyed your poem BEG~~~ A life isn't significant except for its impact on other lives. |
