Waiting for the Third Day, A Muse Chronicle

Muse - Day 1, 2016

For years I had read
Not realizing what I too, had given…

I had given, just not sure what I received in return.

So, in these, my later years thinking on this...
I approached morning’s-day Muse
Fresh with the Sun.

From all I had become in the Sum of Days 
Muse asked gently of me...
“Who are you?”

I am an artist.

“I see no feeling
I feel no seeing.”

And so, the Muse went away
Fading back into the Sun.

And I wait for the next day becoming...
Taking a while.

                        ___*___

Muse - Day 2, 2021

Once again summoned...
I approached morning’s-day Muse
In the rising Sun’s early hours.

And from life’s second Sum-Of-Days becoming
The Muse, now testy, asked me…

“Who are you?” She demanded.

I am an artist becoming.

“I don't feel what you see
I don't see what you feel
So how do you know who you are becoming?”

And so, the Muse sped away
Again… fading back into the Sun.
  
And I still wait for the summoning...

For the Third Day Becoming.
