Imagination Shakes Me Awake

Imagination shakes me awake. Whispering promises of a poem. I refuse to be manipulated Holding my ground Until she gives me the ending line When my eyes pop open. That is genius I think! What is genius? My conscious mind asks. Imagination laughs.

I like this write very much Caren - our muses are hard working and imaginative but something tells me yours was fueled by your own talent more than your muse! Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.
