INSPIRATION
INSPIRATION
I have often thought about inspiration
Process as well as the original stimulus
Is it the sudden image or thought itself
Or what might have first triggered that
Buried within the subconscious, perhaps
Or something noticed in the real world
Ever impinging on a sensory perception
Whether sight or sound, smell or touch
And taste, as well a strange sixth sense
It always seems to be something implicit
Behind the beauty and what is obvious
Inner workings, suspected or just known
A harmony, a rhythm, always a reaction
For me, it is any or all of these things
And sometimes initially unseen by others
Yet it is urging me to somehow share it
Often in words, and in a poor assembly
But it is the responsibility for all to see
For themselves, and what inspires them
