I like to think its all just mine
To pick or drop at will these lively words
They fall, a cascading rain like heaven’s dew
Onto the palate of my fertile mind.
And bring to life a blooming field
I choose a beautiful array of colourful words
Coloured flowers springing up just for you
On the fertile field, now blooming bright
They are mine to pick and put together
And present you with a bouquet you can’t resist
Have I told you lately
That you’re the reason they’re there
This vast field of colourful sprigs
Will not spring up if not for your pleasure
Its raison d’être is to see you smile
To wipe away the threatening tear
You are my muse,
The thought that guides
The words I choose
Or choose to drop
You inspire my inspiration
To aspire to dispel the gloom
And that frown upon your face
To banish it as quick as light
You are the shadow behind the words
Just look closely and you will see you
So these words are yours
And yours alone
All wrapped and prettied
For your pleasure
Breathe in deeply the exotic scents
Of this colourful bouquet of timely words
If you don’t my fields will cease to bloom
I will be standing here alone
No muse to whisper which words ring true
Without you inspiration inspires me not
So here I stand alone
On inspiration ground zero
