Awakened Muse

my muse 
springs awake 
from slumber;
in overdrive 
at the crack of dawn.
my mind's eye
wide open; 
my imagination,
a bird spreading
it's elephantine wingspan,
taking dizzying flight.
poetic inspirations
are breadcrumbs
scattering
here and there.
my ink-filled pen 
gracefully skates 
across a blank page; 
a poem was born 
with a faint gust of wind.
