Mysterious Muse

A cartridge filled with a horde of shackled emotions, am I,
Trifle feelings loiter within me, until she elicits them out,
Wizened by time, she knows that otherwise I might turn mordacious... 
God guides my pen and has assigned her my way, 
         
 ~ She is the vociferous voice of my heart ~

She knows my malleable moods and masterfully makes magic
By weaving whispers into wistful words, 
          
~ She is the byzantine boon of my being ~

With cogent candor she cajoles me to compose poesy, 
She and I share a companionable camaraderie... 
In the mystical moondust of Maker's majestic mercy, 
I acquiesce to her ingenious genius, 
        
  ~ She is an efficacious eclectic enigma ~

For sometimes, she plays truant tricks, 
Her surreptitious evanescence is a conspicuous conspiracy, 
Abandoned, I have to await her august appearance... 
The soft stardust of her sartorial splendor, 
Renders me a mere puppet of her puissant prowess, 
         
 ~ She is a phenomenal Phoenix ~

For she encourages me to endeavor towards excellence, 
Her alacrity aggrandizes my acumen, 
Having faith in her fortuitous favour, I flourish... 
          
~ She is my God-given "gift of grace" ~

Her multifarious munificence is a monumental mystery, 
She has transformed me from a fruitless flibbertigibbet
To a fulfilled female fount with her unfailing finesse... 
          
~ She is my mysterious, magnanimous Muse ~

Feeling forever grateful to God for her grandiloquence.
