My Muse By Afolabi Muideen

Wee minute my ambition for poetry to vanish A word touched my soul, touched my heart and fills My life with great bliss An uplifted word gives My soul the courage, the courage of not being disdain The courage to pursue my ambition When depression sucked my heart Like a baby sucked his mother's breast When my heart fills with sadness And sorrow blocked my way, a word Touched my heart and says Within my heart " hey get off my cloud" A word of gold An incomparable word fills my life with joy When I think, think and my heart Blocked think from thinking, a word touched my soul and repair my Broken heart When my heart is raven and groping for light in dark A word of a man light the dark For me, a word in can never forget My MUSE, a man I can never forget 15/6/2015 Contest: Hey you, get off my cloud Sponsor by SKAT A.

dear A.M the moment you set pen to paper you are a poet. believe in yourself. you write honestly from the heart. English is not your 1st language which makes it harder for you, you will grow and go from strength to strength. keep writing!!! hugs

Hi Afolabi, if what you write gives you pleasure, it is already enough. First and foremost we write for ourselves; having others read and comment is an added bonus. Keep doing what you enjoy most! // paul

:) That is a lovely dedication to a very wonderful man. Lyric Man has often encouraged me as well. Don't let anyone tell you what you are or aren't capable of. If some of the greats in history had done that, we wouldn't have known about their wonderful contributions to mankind. Blessings.
