Heart and Soul

Heart and soul of a poet, 
words flowing through me.
Rhymes and lines, meter and prose,
provoking thought and expression.
Love, life, loss,
grace and generosity.
Hope and the longing for something more,
they fill the lines on the page.
Inspiration granted me, 
sparking light of creation.
What new joys will be discovered,
when next I take up my pen?
