Sonnet For My Muse

Alone, on my own, with no one to show; no one to share, no one to care. My muse, she feeds my hungry craves; her gifts, are in my notebooks, saved. My muse, she paints; in quiet space; reflects on things, within life’s race. Through time and space, she does meander; creating schemed, as to her viewpoint, I pander. Filling pages, with storied delights and painting dreams, I have at night. In nooks and crannies, secrets lie; of course, a few, will always hide. It’s my prerogative, you see; and that’s the way, I’ll always be.

This is a quite wonderful Sonnet ML!! I believe all of us poets share that similar relationship to our personal poetry Muse. (I know I do!!) And, of course, they know our secrets too!! Great Work here!! A Bravo 7+ and a FAV. Best Always, Gary

Where would any poet be without their best friend, the muse? This is a beautiful, heartfelt tribute to yours, M.L. I think we can all relate!

We have to treat our muse with kid gloves - I find mine has bad days and need a break some times:-) I think we can all relate to this super sonnet - a 7 from me:-) Hugs Jan xx

Thanks Jan. You are so right, as muse's are sensitive and the better we treat them; the greater the reward. I'm glad that you stopped by for a read and comments.

Super 7 on this as you capture the essence of a muse so well. "My muse, she paints; in quiet space; reflects on things, within life’s race. Through time and space, she does meander; creating schemed, as to her viewpoint, I pander." Bravo!!!!! A7...

I adore my muse, despite her faults. Thank you for such wonderful comments and the bit '7'. I was a bit worried that it might not make the grade, but I guess I didn't need to do so. I do appreciate the comments and feedback.

The muse definitely feeds my hungry crave too..An outstanding message : )
