Universal Muse

Universal Muse

She is light 
in dark, mysterious spaces,
integrity in immoral places .
She's hope
in spite of  uncertainty,
mercy for those with misery. 
She's an idealist 
in a realm of broken dreams,
conscious of her adversary's  schemes.
She's morality 
displayed for all to see,
enlightenment to all who wish to be.
She's time, 
yesterday, today, tomorrow,
ecstasy within a world of sorrow.
She's creation 
from beginning to the end,
solitude yet society's boisterous friend.
She's love in a world of sin and hate.
She's harmony;  
		this, the poet's fate.

Susan, I so love all the contrasts you present, and the hopeful overcoming of the troubles of the world. Poetry aspires to make the world a better place by lifting the eyes of its readers to a higher place. This poem accomplishes that, and inspires us to continue that pursuit. Beautiful words to be mindful of. ~ John

It's so kind of you to say that JC. Yes, all is well. Had to move to my middle daughter's home in southern Ohio because my other daughter's daughter worked at a hospital and was putting me at risk. I have COPD and a compromised immune system, so I can't take any chances with my health. Hope all is well with you too. Blessings and Hugs, Susan Maree
