The Muse Returns

After having been gone for a long stretch of years The Muse finally came home Yes- you can see that we will gain knowledge and strength Delight in her return The light shines brighter now and the urge to create deepens in all of us She is a shining sun - we know now we will glow through the long winter nights The Muse has found a lover moonlight accentuates the deep, dark shadows which form patterns on the cool, cool earth

I think we have all been there or will be there at some point when the mind just says enough... To return is like swinging on the stars! Welcome back - great piece!
