To Be a Muse
To be a muse is such a thrilling thing
To activate a mind and beauty bring
To turn to verdant plains a landscape bleak
Awaken dormant words and make them speak
Angelic thoughts a muse will whisper sweet
A writer’s mind with lofty thoughts she’ll greet
She’ll bring to life his hidden treasures deep
And touch his words so they make reader’s weep
A muse will muse about how to inspire
How to ignite the embers into fire
She’ll fan the flames of truth until they burn
The poet for her touch cannot but yearn
To be a muse is such a pure delight
To freely flit around and make thoughts bright
Eileen Manassian Ghali
