From here at Passions, that is....who inspires you to run, grab pen or the nearest keyboard, and whip one out? They did? WOW....

now thank them in your title....

or somewhere in the body of the work....

let them know they turned on that light....

and therein, lies the challenge!

Ahhhh but what if we wish the muses that light our poetic fuses to remain a secret????
Hmmmm there is quite the challenge....
mama always said never kiss and tell LOL
and where do we post these? here on this thread???

I'm hanging on your every word
Even if you dont want to speak tonite
It's alright
I'm sitting outside heaven's door
listening to you breath

I like the idea of the challenge, though would prefer, as JM said...to refrain from names, maybe giving instead a few hints that other poets may recognize.

Humm...ok...hints are good...my thinking was/is

JM knocks my socks off with a whammy poem and "inspires" me and in the new creation, I simply credit her...

hey...I've been known for dud ideas before...

Kari dear heart, okay I'm game, you know YOU have always inspired me, but there are lots more who have too. (Sometimes the germ of an idea by one poets actions or words will tigger it off)
No love not a dud idea at all.
I'll try, and you can't say fairer than that
can you
Love and warm stuff always

Hmmm...I'm up for this, but with a bit of a twist!

I will however, make a little footnote Karilea. Gee, finally found the challenge arena, how about that!
