Notes About The Poem

Second Hand Muse

Serenity found in the gentle pines, woodland hues Breathless leaves, rustling softly, heartland muse Amber and scarlet, fiery shadows, falling to earth Caressing the light, creative touch, freehand muse Sunlight shimmering, whispering in intimate truth Flickering graceful imaginings, a dreamland muse Risking the moment, silence embraces the spirit Erasing all sorrow, this hope - a helping hand muse Glorious prayers, psalms who wipe away the pain Gifting joy that rises within, a promised land muse Roaring to life, subtle desires, dancing with elation Wonders so alive, they thrive on the unplanned muse Reflections of beauty, inspiring the heart to listen Truth in the form of a heartbeat, holy land muse Autumn vibrates, vibrant as the echoing feelings Blazing through September, the second hand muse

This is gold Regina, truly a unique read for me. You make me want to go dig up all my old muse poems! I have read countless muse poems, but I cannot say I have ever read one that covered so many individual facets of the muse. Perfect :)

Congratulations on your POTD, Regina. With my own muse running thin, you illustrate that there’s muse all around us. Guess I need to look harder. Happy new year to you. Terry

Our muse comes to help us in various forms on very many occasions. She puts on many guises to reach our presence and be of help to us. That's why we are able to mull over different topics and turn our thoughts into beautiful verse. Gina, a beautiful poem. Congratulations on your POTD.

"silence embraces the spirit, inspiring the heart to listen." Yes, in so many wonderful ways. Sometimes, we need to sit back and enjoy the peace. (Just listen). Your thoughts are so beautiful and uplifting, Regina. I'm floating, as I wrap this tender moment around me. Congratulations my dear friend, on Poem of the Day. My best to you, in the New Year. :) Hugs, Brandy

Gina, I love all your imagery and phrasing in this love song to the muse in its various forms - your nature scenarios are all so serene and beautiful. "Psalms who wipe away the pain"... I totally get that. Congrats for your lovely POTD, and heavenly blessings to you ~ John

You’ve built a strong bond with your muse. After reading so many of your fine poems, I can see she never lets you down and must be loving your tribute to her as today’s potd, Gina.
