The Waves Within

In canyons of the mind One knows that they'll find Where deep thoughts begin Rise from what stirs within Concealed well beneath Good fortunes to unsheathe In light then they're seen From a place nobody's been Scary schemes not to stay Wild waves shall splash away Seeking shores that inspire Spark stars to burn this fire Bright ideas will burst ablaze Shine in awe for all days

So creative, Greg - waves of inspiration within us sloshing around "seeking shores." It's a great image! Are you going to enter this in the couplet contest? I really liked this poem.

Kind of you to ask Sam. But no, I enter another piece. Also, congrats on your recent first place in Brian's contest. I'll try the "Waves" with Brian, though it's tough for a pagan like me to break through. So it goes.
