Gentle Night, Inspire Come, gentle night, entreat visionary sword as once more, sweet night, softer words accord ’tween rain of yesterday, before morrow’s sun come, gentle night, release dreams just begun... to walk among the winter’s whiter scape rhinestones blanketing evergreen’s drape gentle night shed this gloom, leave me quiet as dreaming alone seeks soul’s sweet riot ah, gentle night, what dreams may yet implore to allow me tread yon halls to darkened door as curtained thoughts still veil my sense what payment seeks thee in recompense when one sorely needs Inspire, so dearly paid at any cost! quickly, before evening fades find pen! parchment! pray swift comes the muse gentle night, slumbering, still slightly enthused before me, blankest sheet, to be scratched by quill gentle night, shivering, Inspire touched by Will ©Karilea Rilling Jungel 27 November 2001 |

Someone is inspired! This is really beautiful. I can picture you with quill in hand, "willing" the words to "blankest sheet" and dropping sparkling poetic diamonds all over the page, with a magical flick of a wrist. Very inspiring! |

this inspiration brought out the "lovely" in your words..and one could take some of it in different meaning..as your inspire of Will reminded me of our Wilfred Yeats..and how inspiring he was, also. Thank you, Karilea. ~Wynter "For it was not into my ear you whispered, but into my heart. |

Thank you, Everyone. Janet Marie, perhaps I shall take your sage advice... never question your Muse! |
