-my Metaphorical Muse-

i know not the passion of metaphors until i seek the appreciation of inspiration the rhythm of my soul's tune fears it may not resound when life spreads sonorous sorrow- seeking solitude is not becoming, and renouncing trust is ineffable; unable to be comprehended i knew not the passion of poetry until i felt the warmth of my metaphorical muse- unable to express life’s lessons literally, creating beauty from scars, wounds heal only with sutures mending with myriad of meditation- my metaphorical muse bestows a sensation of divination shall i express my sorrow in a way others can understand? or should i embrace the essence of my allegory… maybe my words know not what they write but my soul shines when my muse is my light

"my metaphorical muse bestows a sensation of divination" - I doubt I could ever have created this line, and yet, it is a classic. So beautiful! The entire poem a tribute to your poetic prowess, Laura.

That's a great first line...I see you are getting wise with age lol... Poets are a reflection of their muse...we all write for different reasons... But the important thing is to let our Muse free...Great poem.
