Notes About The Poem

From My Words Written


My soul looks outward from my written words,
   day, night, awake, sleeping I seek my muse;
   sometimes, I leave my blues and just amuse,
sending my penned words on the wings of birds.
Last night I walked the woods in a green dress,
  a girl lost among trees in hues of green,
  stopping to ponder beside a blue stream;
nature soothes my soul with a sweet caress _
I often find muse waiting in a dream,
  and then, we find poetic words that twine
that shine and sparkle like a star- to gleam_
  Oh, this gift of pen is a gift divine:
to ponder, meditate a perfect theme; 
   with an ending unknown I must confess !

Milt, thank you so much for the compliment and encouragement, I am sure that I am at the bottom of the group too as I have not won that many contests, Constance
