My muse is veiled by clouds of mystery She steals my thoughts and dreams both night and day Allured yet vexed with curiosity Frustrated by the wicked game she plays My words are music, she begins to dance With coyness, wiggles out of inquiries Seducing me to take another chance To once again explore her boundaries But she has shown the beauty of her heart And I have felt the pureness of her words So heavenly, just like an angel's harp I'll solve the mystery surrounding her I think of all the wonders I've been shown Such beauty lends itself to none I've known an original poem by Daniel Turner

This is wonderful sonneteering, my friend. Thought I would look at one of your oldies since I know it's hard for you to comment to us right now.

This is a wonderful sonnet, looks like you've figured out the mystery of your muse, just excellent writing! I think we all go through ups and downs with our muse, that's what make writing so interesting!A7

Daniel Turner

John, it took me 3 days to write this one sonnet. I usually write one in a couple of hours. I do appreciate your support and hopefully it will inspire me to finish some of the poems I have started. Thank you John.

Hi Danny, Your muse is a siren, like Salome, dancing to entice your words. She's your sparring partner in the ring, trying to make each of your jabs sting. She's a flirt, fixing you with a stare saying, "C'mon Daniel. Pick up your pen and make me cry." Many of your sonnets have brought tears to the eyes of many of us. Your Muse knows the depth of your talent, so do we. Now write what inspires you, and make all of us cry. Go back and finish some of those incomplete poems.

Daniel Turner
Date: 8/23/2016 9:07:00 AM

Thank you Lin. I swear I'm trying. I started to email you the other day and ask for help but I knew it would not solve the mystery. I will persevere! Thank you for your encouraging pep talk:) You know I love you:):)
