Inspiration

You have been so dear to me, Warm and gentle you sit beside me, Although we are apart You hold out your hands to me, You ease my trembling heart. You are the cushion for my head, The blanket for my soul, You are the light that fills The night times darkest hole. You are and I am.

Without inspiration by our side, we poets cannot do anything at all ! It could be one you love dearly or it could be the abstract 'Inspiration'. Beautifully put Paulette.... ! Love it !

So happy to know you "Love it"~ and you are so correct to say "without inspiration by our side, we poets cannot do anything at all!" Without inspiration we would be empty vessels, and the art of poetic writing would be lost. Thanks for stopping by to comment. :)Paulette

Lovely writing. Very Spiritual! One must be, to bring out, the real will be yours forever in another. Love knows truth...and then time and space are of little consequence.

Second attempt to comment (glitches). Like Heidi Sands, my first response was: "so beautiful." Truly inspired from above. Yet allows for St. Valentine's love! Shalom shalom
