Muse

M ystical union:  his thoughts flow into mine
U nderstanding life: how water turns to wine
S exual tension: inner thoughts he lays bare
E lectrical charges: he sets off the flare

A short Acrostic in rhyme. You give life to your muse, Eileen; the relationship between the two of you is not just platonic...there is more to it! Hugs // paul

very nicely done, and methinks your muse is a human!! Mine is a woman who just lives in my mind! I especially loved the line on "wine!" Gorgeous, and congrats for your win.

This is a tremendous and enlightening write my friend! I love how you brought many aspects of what a muse can be, that was very ingenious on your part, and you left a lot to our imagination too, awesome! What a brilliant piece, such a grand poem, Great Work!!

Yes....usually muses have some sort of pull on us that goes beyond the platonic...I mean, read about painters and authors, and poets...there was this close intimacy with the muse that was beyond mere friendship. Anyway...glad you liked this write, Russell. Lovely post, and thanks for dropping by.
