Mocha Muse

I’m having soup for food today because I am so poor I mean that in a financial way I’m rich in blessings of lord I can sit and doodle a bit With muses on my brain But so engaged in my writing page Soup gets cold all in vain Seems I’m wired to be inspired By amethyst art of variety Music poems stories songs fire Of purple piety Spirit is loud it starts to shout You were born to adorn and create Awareness and, a special blend Of praising God in your purple way Fruit of the spirit feeds us here In the womb of Poetry Soup I can glide down rainbow slide Of your mind in words of truth As I grow within my chocolate soul I feel the ancestors smile Stories of old make me emerald glow I live to make them proud So pardon me if I peach preach My heart belongs to Jehovah When I eat I pray in pink peace That he blesses food over and over. Thank you Lord for my daily bread Even when it is just soup By his hand I am fuchsia fed And led by his mocha muse.

Hi Karen, You have such a beautiful and grateful spirit. Knowing that your wealth is not based on what you have or don't have, comes from “knowing” who provides all. I enjoyed reading you today. Have a wonderful day:-) Alexis

I believe what you see in me resides in you. We see reflections of ourselves in other people. Thanks for that and for reading my poems!

Glad I got you. I was getting sleepy. It's the end of the month for me too. So I'm almost eating soup. But church today made a way and I can eat more than soup.

Oh my, this is such a heartfelt and deep write. How beautifully you've conveyed that richness isn't measured in terms of money, it is measured in terms of blessings, moral values and quality. Also, the way you be used various colours here just made this write very unique and breathtaking.. I love the wordplay here and how you've phrased emotions.. Enjoyed reading this, a gorgeous read :)
