Mellowed Muse

Blended in the world outside I breathe, inside my heart distant waves seethe awaiting a tranquil recluse to sprout, in silver shells bubbling roundabout. In quietude they peep into my slumber, spreading over my parched blank umber. They rush into my mind wings to fly, taking me to the zenith in blue sky. A land of my thoughts draped in words, my muse chirping to soar with birds. I hear a velvet mellow enchanting me, twinkling pearls as stars in ecstasy. Imaginations, dreams, hopes and love emotions of an innocent white dove, the waves of my muse engulf my flow, my pen weaves words in a blessed glow. A secret island of lush green trees where I wander in the soothing breeze, when my ink dries up I sleep in peace, my muse is a scent my dreams release.

I agree with your line, "my pen weaves words in a blessed glow." Your pen certainly glows with blessings, my friend. I thoroughly enjoyed your musings on your muse and the interplay of dreams and daydreams that elicit her whispers. "My muse is a scent my dreams release." Happy to see your muse is whispering frequently, and also to see this beautiful writing be acknowledged with a win. Blessings ~ John

I wish I could save this wonderful comment of yours. Thank you for giving me such kind blessings. I myself have been busy with my work and am not able to give much time on PS to appreciate the wonderful poets over here these days. But I am glad and hope the blessings from inspirations like you keep coming. I am really touched by your generous appreciation. It means a lot to me because I am honoured to be on PS. Thank you for making my day. Much love :)
