A Process of Discovery

inspiration burns
turns a spark
from the tinder
     of imagination
into a flame..
          a flame
that gathers up
          experience
burnishes and
             refines
a nugget of emotion
into an image, then
crystallize as a phrase
to become
      a spoken word,
a voice
from
the seeing eye
